Hello,
I joined a while ago to be able to ask questions and read, but never did the introduction. We got our first chickens back in March, month old pullets from Murray McMurray. In April we got a few more locally raised marans barnyard mixes from a local breeder. A student wanted to raise a few for me, so he raised two OE, which I am getting this week. We have SLW, Cuckoo Marans, Barred Rocks, EE, and then our marans mixes and the OE. Two of the mixes appear to be roosters. We live in Western Washington State and have a hay farm where the chickens live. We live down the street. I want to eventually allow them to free range, but there are many predators and not many places for chickens to hide on a hay farm just yet. For now they get supervised time out to play.
