I copied and pasted lol. Too late at night to keep my mind straight on what im doing 
(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
I have had chickens before but its been over 11 years ago. We had several different batches, laying hens and meat birds, turkeys and 2 ducks.
(2) How many chickens do you have right now?
We have 10 and 4/5 chicks (not sure if the 5th one is going to make it yet)
(3) What breeds do you have?
Im really not sure honestly. We got them from my stepson.
(4) What are your favorite aspects of raising backyard chickens?
I love talking to them, feeding them, getting eggs etc.
(5) What are some of your other hobbies?
I have 3 dogs and a cat. We live on our lake property and enjoy being in the country.
(6) Tell us about your family, your other pets, your occupation, or anything else you'd like to share.
I guess I jumped the gun lol. I work in a county office helping people get assistance.
(7) Bonus: How did you find BYC, how long have you known about BYC, and what made you finally join our awesome community?
I was Googling questions about newly hatched chicks and the issues they have sometimes and trying to get information
