Hello,
My name is Fluttervale. Pretty much anywhere online you see Fluttervale, you're talking to me
I do not currently have chickens but am planning a hobby farm in the next 5 years. I would like to be able to feed my family from my land and also be able to raise an income without a boss. I currently live in Ann Arbor, Michigan, and am looking at nearby areas for my "farm." I have been lurking here for about 2 months, just reading threads.
(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
I do not currently have chickens. My Dad forbade us from having them for 4-h because he grew up with them and they are "dirty and noisy." I haven't lived anywhere but apartments as an adult.
(2) How many chickens do you have right now?
Zero.
(3) What breeds do you have?
I am planning to have Wyandottes and possibly other breeds. Not sure yet. I would like to have them to show as well as breed for egg/meat production.
(4) How did you find out about BackYardChickens.com?
BYH.
(5) What are some of your other hobbies?
I knit, quilt, garden, can my own food, and play Farmville.
(6) Tell us about your family, your other pets, your occupation, or anything else you'd like to share.
I am currently single with a long-term boyfriend. I have a Labrador, a cat, and three guinea pigs in my apartment. I work in retail.
