(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
I am not new to chickens. I had a flock of 20 for 2 years. Then a new neighbor moved in with free range and no fence around their yard. Their chickens disappeared. My chickens were in a large run and within the week of me noticing the other chickens disappeared mine were all slaughtered.
I checked the run and could not figure out how the killer got in.
(2) How many chickens do you have right now?
Zero
(3) What breeds do you have?
I had several different kinds. My favorites were my Asian blues and Rocket. I had a few leghorns, an Easter, and some that were red.
(4) What are your favorite aspects of raising backyard chickens?
I loved visiting them and when they followed me around the run.
(5) What are some of your other hobbies?
I sew, woodworking, epoxy art, messing with my cricut, and soon my husband and I are building a blacksmithing area so we can make knives.
(6) Tell us about your family, your other pets, your occupation, or anything else you'd like to share.
I have other pets, dogs, cats. I just graduated from massage school.
(7) Bonus: How did you find BYC, how long have you known about BYC, and what made you finally join our awesome community?
I have been visiting this forum for 3 years. Started reading posts before I bought my first baby chicken. And I have just comeback after a year because I have switched to ducks and saw there is a duck area in the forum.
. I have added pictures of my babies that I had taken. Don’t mind the empty water bowl. It had a leak and there was a new water system behind me for them.
