Hello new member here and very new gr-grandma 2-7-25. i am raising chickens here in Abbeville SC. I have 8 RIR, 3 LT BR, 3 Buff BR, 4 Australorps, 3 Wyandotte, 4 mixed, 1RIR Roo, 1 Roo Brahma/RIR/?. Had a few losses throughout. my first time hatching did 9. 8 of those were viable, I hatched 7 but do to human error (me) I messed up one and lost one. So I guess 6 isn't to bad for first time. Anyway I enjoy raising them and watching their antics. I just put some in the incubator for a friend.
I am semi retired tried full retirement but not ready yet. So still working getting ready to start a garden any suggestions on how to do that with free range birds excepted. I also crochet a little and would like to have some honey bee's (any thoughts). any way enough rambling for now have a great day.
thank you I am still learning how to navigate thru these posts, and not sure how to tagWelcome to BYC!
I we do honey bees and I garden a lot. I put up wire gates around the garden so the hens can't eat everything up!
Sorry or your losses!
