We have four chickens.

We live in Pleasanton, have 3 dogs, goldfish pond and aquarium fish. My husband works for Lexus, we have two children aged 15 and 12. We are having a great time with the chickens, I never knew they had so much personality. It has been a great experience so far!

It's your girls first night outside tonight?? ::bites nails:: It was a tough night for me when we did that. lol. They'll be fine, though.

See you 'round the site.
 
Hi Itsy,

I am having a hard time tonight, my husband thinks I am crazy but it feels like sending your first child off to Kindergarten! I know they will be fine but I am anxious to say the least. Thanks for the Welcome!

Ha! My bf asked me if I wanted to set up a sleeping bag next to the tractor, I was so nervous. Eh, what do they know anyway!

Yes..my husband is sleeping like a baby right now and I am a nervous wreck! I am so glad you posted Itsy because now I do feel like somebody understands! Again, I know they will be fine but I am so attached to the girls.
