Hi and

from Ga.

Wow thanks for all the welome-ness!! And so quickly too!!

My chicken wishlist, according to various sites, is Speckled Sussex, Rhode Island Reds, Orpington, Faverolles, and Wyandotte, not nessesarily in order but definitely with Speckled Sussex numero uno, just because I think they're awesome and they were in an ebook I found of rare and endangered breeds. The most important thing is how good they lay, with a close second how they'll act around my little sisters.

4-h wasn't on my list of things to consider when choosing my breed, but there are some handsome chickies out there!! I've never done any 4-h before, but I've been jealous of all my friends who do that. Living out in the country, in a country school, I'm small percentage of students who've never done something related to showing animals! Fair grounds are always a social hotspot. Hang out long enough and you'll see half the school hanging out! I'm not even sure who to talk to about that, but if I could get myself and my sissies in that'd be fun and a huge family-binding activity!!
