Hello, My name is Natasha and I am new to the chicken world.
I Just got my first batch 2 weeks ago! I have 8 that are 2 weeks and 2 days old, and 2 that are 1 week old. For a total of 10 chicks!
4 silkies, 2 crested, 2 frizzle, 1 Olive Egger and 1 Ameraucana.

I learned about Backyardchickens.com from internet searches.
Whenever I have a question, it was always the site that had my answers!


I am a complete animal nut, currently have 5 cats and my 10 chickens, but there will be more to come! Alpacas may be in my not so distant future!

Aside from my love of animals, I also am a gluten free baker (I have celiac), gardener and love to cook!

Looking forward to learning more about chickens!

Here is a little peek at a few of my crew!
