Newby Chicken Owners

[JemimaCamilla]

Hi all we are new to raising backyard chickens. We are hand raising 2 now 8 week old Lohmann Brown Chickens (sex unsure yet) as adopted straight from hatched egg). They are adorable in nature, names are Jemima and Camilla.
We are learning lots as we go. Kids adore our chickens.
