My name is Brenda and I live in Louisiana. I would like to join all you chicken peeps for support and knowledge. I have kept chickens on and off for years. My last flock were Araucana/Americauna (Hatchery brood), buff orphingtons, white leghorns, and a silver laced wyandotte. I had to give them up a couple of years ago to go with my husband on the pipeline. Now that he has decided to work locally we have started a garden and a new flock of chicks. I have 3 cornish rocks (probably all roos) and 3 production red pullets that came from Tractor Supply in an effort to save a Phoenix ... I had to buy 6 to get the one that I wanted. I ordered 6 Araucanas and 5 Marans. Only the Araucanas have come in from my order. I reordered the marans and Welsummers in hopes of getting them. My feed store said they were having a hard time getting their birds this years. Hatching was not going as good as usual. I am here for conversation and advice. Right now, my birds are doing great. Hopefully, my new ones will come in on the hatch that is delivered tomorrow.
