New to the Chicken Game

[Farmer_White]

My wife and I are new to the chicken game. Got our first chickens back in August 2017 (end of August to be specific). They are ISA browns and started laying Jan 1 2018. They were free range until they kept jumping my neighbors fence. They would come back, but... Anyway they now have 100 SQ run for 7 of them and a coop to go up in at night. I really enjoy watching them, working on the coop, getting eggs, sharing them with my neighbors, and automating the boring stuff. I have been considering getting more chickens and trying to start selling the eggs. I need a lot more education and time to get to know the process. I don't really have a plan weather full free range, organic, etc. For now I will enjoy the flock i have. Really friendly birds, let me pet and handle them. Follow me around like a lost puppy, kind of funny.
