Hi! My name is Fritz! Today I finally made the big choice to purchase my own chickens! I’m gonna answer the template, then share a bit more about myself!
(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
> Very new! I actually just got mine today.
(2) How many chickens do you have right now?
> Four!
(3) What breeds do you have?
> I’m... not sure. I believe one is a pullet, one is an austrolorp, and the other two... I have no clue.
(4) What are your favorite aspects of raising backyard chickens?
> I’m super new, but honestly, I’ve always loved caring for animals and have wanted chickens for the longest time.
(5) What are some of your other hobbies?
> Mainly art, animation, video games, paleontology, ecology... I do a lot of weird things. If it is or was alive, I probably love it.
(6) Tell us about your family, your other pets, your occupation, or anything else you'd like to share.
> I have a dog, a parakeet, multiple turtles, goldfish, plecos, ghost shrimp, and a crawfish! I’ve had plenty of other animals in the past that lived long, happy lives; a rabbit, guinea pigs, other parakeets, other turtles, many other fish, a bearded dragon, cats and even more that I still miss every day.
(7) Bonus: How did you find BYC, how long have you known about BYC, and what made you finally join our awesome community?
> I found this site while doing a lot of research on poultry, specifically ducks, since I’ve recently rescued a lone survivor egg. I finally got chickens, and decided this would be the perfect place to dive into!
Here’s some stuff about me now!
Fritz | She/Her They/Them It/Its Pronouns
I have bad anxiety, so please be patient with me.
When I get excited, I often type in ALL CAPS LIKE THIS WITH A LOT OF EXCLAMATION MARKS!!!
I hyperfixiate on a lot of things, and tend to be annoying with my interests.
It’s nice to meet you all!
