- I'm a single mother of two daughters ages 15 and 12. We have four cats. Two of them are eight years old, and stay inside only. The other two are 3 years old, and stay outside only. I am a legal secretary/personal assistant, and have been at my current job for eleven years and two months. I am 41 years old. My favorite vacation spot is the beach, but I also love going to state parks and enjoying nature for the day, or camping over the weekend with my girls. I absolutely LOVE college football. I joined this group because it was recommended to me by a friend who raises chickens. She said this was a great resource for all things chicken, which I need because I know absolutely nothing about chickens. I made a homemade brooder out of a rubbermaid tub to keep the baby chicks in that my parents gave to my girls. I am so proud of myself because I have managed to keep them alive for a week. I know that probably sounds weird, but with my busy life and lack of help, that's a true accomplishment. Now we are all kind of attached to these little chicks, so I want to make sure that I am giving them the best life possible.View attachment 1327420 View attachment 1327421[/ATTACH] View attachment 1327424 View attachment 1327425
