Welcome! This is a great place to spend time with like-minded folks who enjoy talking about their obsessions!
It's also the best place to come if you need encouragement and persuasion to go ahead and get more chickens (or ducks, or turkeys, or peafowl, or guineas, or ....
)
Hi from western KY! Also, you probably already know you're going to need more hens to have a better hen/rooster ratio... see there?! It's started already... the enabling part ...
We may eventually get more hens, but being as each rooster only has a couple hens in his run with him its not really a problem right now. My coop is divided into three runs, so my girls are bred with only the guy I want them to be. I'm really concentrating on the silky ducks right now, and the new coop we will have to build of course!
.....EM the fish lady, nice to have you now your going to have to visit the duck thread if you haven't already. and "where am I where are you" thread for N.C. so all of your neighbors can say hello. W're in Burnsville so not too far away. You'll love it here and yes we are all enablers, addicted,obsessed, you name !!
Also welcome cldineley, I think we met on the N.C. thread, great to have ya'll.
Thanks all. Yes, I am "The Fish Lady"! At least that is what my clients usually call me. It isn't very often that they call me by my name...I own and operate an Aquarium Maintenance company...Hence the Fish lady. I already posted in the NC thread and I've already stolen an idea for a duck coop! LOL My husband is thrilled that I've got a place to get MORE ideas, let me tell you! LOL
