New chicken mama.

[nanarogge]

Hi. I am a fairly new chicken mama; at least raising for eggs and fun. We did 4h with the kids a long time ago. I have 7 hens; a variety of breeds. They are just now beginning to lay and I’m getting a few pullet eggs daily. So cute. I’m sure I’ll have lots of questions as I go. I’ll list my breeds below.
Buff orpington
Lavender orpington (we think)
splash orpington
Rhode Island red
Golden cuckoo maran
Black australorp
White austra
My other hobbies are gardening and I am in the process of building a chicken yard/garden.

So fun! I’ll be curious what you include for plants in your chicken garden, I’m always looking for good hardy plants to include for my girls. Our flocks overlap in breeds with the Buff Orpington, Rhode Island Red and the Black Australorp. Enjoy!
