My backyard chicken story in the newspaper

[johncampanelli]

Hello BYC friends:

My two lives as backyard chicken lover and newspaper reporter have finally collided. (for good or bad)

Read the story. Watch the video. Lemme know what you think.

Thanks!

Hi there! Loved the video; and had to laugh at your wife's dismay at being called 'the chicken lady". (Sorry, Mrs. Campanelli!) The article was well written. Hopefully it will pique the interest of others in your community and lure more people into the world of backyard chickens! Thanks for posting the link.

(and BTW, welcome to BYC!)

Thanks so much, guys. I always and leery of the the "I" "I" "me" of first person articles.

This forum and knowledgeable people on it have REALLY helped me raise my peeps, from bedding questions to curing sour crop.

What a resource.

hope it's just my computer, nothing came up when I followed the link, it showed a blank page on your network's website like there should be an article but there wasn't.
