1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
Hi I am a newish chicken keeper. My sister has kept chickens for over 15 years, and I finally decided to dip my toes in…but chicken math is real. I would love to move somewhere with more land, but pretty hard in CA if you are not multi millionaires.
(2) How many chickens do you have right now?
I have:
4 polish hens - I love these a goofy girls: Thelma, Blondie, Chu, Tina
8 buff orpington hens - very sweet and loyal
10 Cinnamon Queens (sent to me by mistake from H.H.- learned my lesson there) - will probably look to sell 5 of the hens when they start laying.
1 Easter egger - high strung named Louise
1 Appenzeller Spitzhauben - super cute Girl named Inez
(3) What breeds do you have?
see above
(4) What are your favorite aspects of raising backyard chickens?
Love animals and enjoy caring for them, learning their personalities.
(5) What are some of your other hobbies?
reading, gardening, art, family, travel
(6) Tell us about your family, your other pets, your occupation, or anything else you'd like to share.
we have two dogs, two cats and a parrot. Work as an RN in pediatrics. Husband and one child in college and one in HS.
(7) Bonus: How did you find BYC, how long have you known about BYC, and what made you finally join our awesome community?
have been poking around in BYC for a while, finally decided to be a joiner
