(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
Not new, I first got them 2-3 years ago and raise them at least once a year. I have broody hens, an incubator, and we buy at TSC also.
(2) How many chickens do you have right now?
17 and a baby chick
(3) What breeds do you have?
Oh boy, here we go:
Barnyard Mix
Black Star
Rhose Island Red
Welsummer
Easter Egger
Buff Orpington
Blackstar/RIR cross bred
(4) What are your favorite aspects of raising backyard chickens?
I love the feeling of going outside and seeing the little idiots chasing each other around the yard. I watch them a lot and take the chance to find out about Pecking Orders.
(5) What are some of your other hobbies?
Raising rabbits, mini donkeys, ducks, any animal. I also like gardening and horseback riding. pretty much anything nature. Especially hiking.
(6) Tell us about your family, your other pets, your occupation, or anything else you'd like to share.
I live in a house with 5 siblings and it's hectic. We have so many pets and children we're practically a zoo. I go to school but it's a dream of mine to be a Vet. This site has helpful people who I've been reading and learning from since 2 years ago.
7) Bonus: How did you find BYC, how long have you known about BYC, and what made you finally join our awesome community? :D
I looked up stuff a few times and it kept appearing. I eventually just got on when I had an emergeny and forgot to do this. So, I am now.

Well, it's an interesting story:
So, my sister wanted to hatch a chick. So, I grabbed an egg and put it in my bator. We candled it 6-7 days later and I couldn't find anything. So I think, 'Great, dead." My sister tells me not to give up. We left it in there with the egg turner and yesterday was my sisters birthday. The night before she asked for a chick and we went out together. When we got home, one runs up front and tells me that it hatched. I'm confused and then I remember what happened. It is now her birthday present from me and we are planning to get some more to be her friends. We named her Cherry Pepsi.
