Hi
My Name is Luisa and I am a Canadian living in Costa Rica. My husband and I have an acre property in the mountains and about 2 months ago bought 6 baby chicks. I have only basic Spanish and had no idea how to get the breed or sex I wanted. I asked a local farmer to help me find some hens but he took me to a pet store where there was about 30 babies in a box and the girl working there knew nothing about them so I just grabbed 6 and hoped for the best. I did not know the breed sex or age of these chicks but now I think they are about two and a half months old and it could be that they are all roosters. I sure hope not cause I love these guys but if they are all roos I can't keep them all. The greatest thing is that my 15 year old border collie aussie shepard cross has a new lease on life. He puts the chickens back in their house in the late afternoon every day and is so happy to have a job and he is really good at it.
I look forward to talking to other chicken owners who share in this amazing experience
