It has been 4 months since the start of our new family's adventure and how fun! We purchased our new members early April 2017. 5 cute Easter Eggers came home with us from a local and reputable company. The adventure began that evening when our town and specifically our neighborhood had a F1 tornado. No injuries or damage to our house but as new 4 day old chick owners it was pretty scary. No power! How do we keep them warm?? Thanks to our middle son - we soon found wonderful member information on BYC to help us through that next 18 hours! I read everyday!

It's been just over 4 months and our first girl "Bella" just laid her first egg!! Greenish/blue. Yippee. Miss Graybeard will be next- already sitting in nesting box!

Keep the information flowing! It's been so valuable
