Hello all! I am a first time Chicken owner. I've been prepping for weeks and in the process of trying to find good information I happened upon this site. I love it and decided to join!
I've started with 6 hens. They are five month old Rhode island red/White Plymouth rock cross. They are beautiful and I think I've found my calling. I've had them just over a week and couldn't be happier. They are very sweet tempered.
I have 2 children, a 6 year old son and a 3 year old daughter. They love them and so does our dog Harley though we have to keep an eye on her around the girls still! I've wanted chickens for ages and was surprised that my husband has enjoyed them as much as I have. He helped me bring them home in a dog crate in the back of our minivan! Now he helps me clean the coop!
Can't wait for all of the adventures. We've already gotten to know their personalities. A few won't leave my side and I'm always tripping over the sweeties. A couple love to be petted. And one my dad nicknamed "Rambling Betty" (hence my username). She loves to go exploring all by herself! I'm in love!
