... did I think I'd find myself on a site for CHICKENS! But so many of my friends and neighbors have them that I decided to jump on the backyard chicken bandwagon.
Last weekend, I bought 7 Ameraucana chicks at my local Agway. Five are lavender and two are black. Several chicken-owning neighbors assured me this was a safe place to purchase them, and I'm relatively sure they are REAL Ameraucanas and not Easter Eggers. They are 3 weeks old now; can't wait to find out how many are hens and how many are 'roo's! I really want them for eggs (and their company), so not sure what to do if more than one is a 'roo - fingers crossed.
I bought a sweet chicken tractor from a neighbor; it's Amish made and the chickies should be very happy there. Also on my property are 4 alpacas and a guard llama, and two dogs (who don't have access to the paddock).
I'm a knitting addict, and looking forward to spending some down time with the chickens which I work on my projects.
