(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
Yes! I finally took the dive on March 15th 2018. Convinced the hubby to keep his promise to build me a coop. Mwahaha!
I had one chicken as a kid, my dog brought her home and we had her for a few years, gave us really yummy eggs.

(2) How many chickens do you have right now?
I have 4 chicks.

(3) What breeds do you have?
2 rhode island red (hubbies) and 2 gold laced Wyandotte (my babies!)

(4) How did you find out about BackYardChickens.com
I think it was Facebook.

(5) What are some of your other hobbies?
Raising rabbits. We have 6 right now, 2 new Zealand, 2 Flemish giant, and 2 californian. My new Zealand is pregnant yay!

That has happened since I've begun to run to the coop to check on my chicks every time I get home.
But how can I not?
THEY'RE SO STINKING CUTE.
