Thank you for making me a member of this group. Hi Everyone, I am a recently retired teacher, who lives on a small ranch in Southern California. Since my husband passed, I have been looking for something interesting to keep me busy.We had a few chickens before, but I was a bad chicken keeper.Now, thanks to my relatives and neighbors, I know a lot more. It has been fun getting set up,and making new friends. My favorites are the Marans and the Easter Eggers. A relative lives with me now, and she has a few other breeds. We are into Heritage Breeds. We have started off with good lines. Our goal is to feed ourselves, and sell eggs and a few chickens along the way. She has experience. A few weeks ago, I bought an incubator. Yesterday, we set 20 Easter Egger eggs from our flock. This is a new experience for us. One of our hens is showing early signs of being broody, but I couldn't wait. I am now a chicken addict, so please keep "egging"me on. Joanne
