1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?

I'm very new to chickens and I love them to pieces! I just got my first few about two months ago? Maybe a little more.

(2) How many chickens do you have right now?

6 young ones!

(3) What breeds do you have?

1 Barred rock, 1 Rhode Island Red, 1 White Leghorn, 1 black sex-link, and 2 bantams (idk if i spelled that right or got the name right... they're easter eggers) Everyone is still really young (no eggs yet), but we have a pretty strong hunch that the Barred Rock (Parsnip) is a rooster.

(4) How did you find out about BackYardChickens.com?

Unfortunately, my rhode island red (Pepper) has fallen ill and isn't opening her eyes :( I found a similar thread on this website.

(5) What are some of your other hobbies?

I'm a dog trainer by trade but I also consider it a hobby, I enjoy writing quite a bit, and playing video games, as well as, of course, caring for my pets

(6) Tell us about your family, your other pets, your occupation, or anything else you'd like to share.

I have one dog (16 year old chihuahua, Pumpkin), 4 cats (4 year old maine coon, Little Mama; 11 month old maine coon, Scoops McDoogler; 1 year old tuxedo, A Cat Called Quest; 7 week old orange tabby, Strongbad AKA Dangeresque), 6 chickens (Parsnip, Pepper, Pea, Peach, Peanut, and Pistachio), 1 sun conure (Bob), and loads of fish!

Welcome to Backyard chickens Emily. I used to show & breed Cockers. Had a grooming salon, wrote for dog magazines probably before you were born. Tons of dog people on BYC.
