Hello all!
Just moved up here in March of this year and set to work building my chicken pen, and getting my pasture ready for Nigerian goats I used to raise poultry when I was young but that was a good number of years ago.
I currently have 12 Golden Laced Wyandottes that just started laying eggs. 1 Barred Rock Rooster (couldn't find a GLW roo anywhere) and then was given a pet Dutch Bantam rooster. The little guy has a wire cage he stays in during the day outside (make shift chicken tractor) and at night he stays in my master bathroom! Pretty funny as I never thought I would have pet chicken that sleeps in my bathroom.
I have plans to build him a fancy chicken tractor at some point and find him a girlfriend (which might be kinda hard as I don't see many like him).
Anyways nice to find a great forum for chickens and look forward to chatting with everyone!
