I think I know where my love of chickens came from, I found this picture of my uncle that had just collected the eggs from the hen house! This picture was so nice to find in my mothers attic!

How lovely! A love of chickens must be hereditary after all!

Looks like they just gathered the golf balls at the golf course

That's a very cool pic to have found of your family

And wow they must've had many girls or only collected every few days, neat find trunkman!

It was a great find, and thank you. I think I'll start a old pic thread on here, that should be very interesting.

I never knew he or they had chickens or how often they collected, but I've always wanted chickens and finally got my own flock a little over a year ago, and then to find this pic just really excited me!
