Welcome! I'm a newbie also. I have 45 coturnix quail in the incubator, 2 dogs and a herd of 20 pedigreed Holland Lop rabbits.Hey Iām Ella. Iām married and we have 2 daughters, 3 dogs, and a cat. Iām new to backyard chickeningI started with 4 chicks, an australorp, a barred rock, and two ameraucanas, but one of the ameraucanas died a couple of days agoā¹ Iām still weighing whether to get one or two more chicks because obviously I wanted 4 to start but I also donāt want the smaller chick to get bullied.(the farm I got them is only a few minute drive away) Im having so much fun so far though. Itās like an on going science experiment in my yoga room(thatās where Iām keeping the brooder for now) and the clean up isnāt as time consuming as I thought it would be but theyāre only about 3 weeks old so Iām sure that will change
Iām really excited to add chickens to my yard. I have a garden full of herbs flowers and rotating vegetables that I really like to use in my kitchen and Iām so excited to be able to use them with chickens now. Just a lot of general excitement for the learning experience in my house right now.and lots of questions! Anyway thanks for reading
