Hello! Nice to meet everyone! We are new to owning chickens and wanting to start a mini homestead.
(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
We have had chickens since April. Somehow ended up with too many roosters and trying to navigate that because we love them all so!
(2) How many chickens do you have right now?
13.
(3) What breeds do you have?
Starlight’s, Americana, Rhode Island, Plymouth Rock, and a polish rooster.
(4) What are your favorite aspects of raising backyard chickens?
These creatures are incredible! They’re like family and I adore them!
(5) What are some of your other hobbies?
We are currently RV living on our land while building. We have four kids. Those two things along with work and animals about sum it up! Lol
(6) Tell us about your family, your other pets, your occupation, or anything else you'd like to share.
We have two dogs, one cat, one bunny. We want barn cats (Our cat is indoor). We are considering a donkey, goats, and mini cow, but not rushing yet!
(7) Bonus: How did you find BYC, how long have you known about BYC, and what made you finally join our awesome community?
This comes up tons when I search for information! It’s been an incredible resource! Thank you all!
