1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens? Very new, we got 3 hens yesterday

(2) How many chickens do you have right now? 3

(3) What breeds do you have? 1 Americauna and 2 Rhode Island Red

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

(5) What are some of your other hobbies? Vegetable Garden, Auto Racing,

(6) Tell us about your family, your other pets, your occupation, or anything else you'd like to share. We have 3 fish in a 75 gallon aquarium, 1 cat. We will be retiring to 3 acres within the next 2 years and had an opportunity to get these 3 hens and their coop from a neighbor. Figured we would get started on our new life and get the chickens now so we can learn now.
