NY chicken lover!!!!

Checking in after an age.. All is overall well although just lost my old half blind chicken 'loaf' - she somehow waited until *after* the mega cold /sigh.. At least the others are doing well!

RIP Loaf 2012-2018.. (old pic, she no longer had the beard and was sans one eye)..

Sorry To hear you lost your sweety ...
I think of it this way ..The cold snap was more than she could bear .
I also have a older hen who is staying in the coop ..and roosting where it is warmer.. I can see her saying " I dont care how much scratch you put outside ..Im not going out there to get it .."

Good morning! My name is Frank & I am a chicken hobbyist from Olivebridge, NY (about 20 minutes from Woodstock NY.). I was wondering if there are any other hobbyists in my area, on this site?
I have been in the hobby for 5 years now. I have raised Rhode Island Reds, Gold Stars, Cuckoo Marans, Cream Crested Legbars, Welsummers, Icelandic’s, Silkies, & a few mutts! I really enjoy raising my girls, along with bee keeping, & gardening.

Your near the Ashokan reservoir. I'm 5mins from the last one and I believe the largest, the Cannonsville. Great fishing and hunting.
I've fished the Pepacton also which is better than the Cannonsville cause they draw ours down for a river regulator if it's dry in the summer. Always wanted to check the Ashokan out.

Sidney N.Y. TSC, too small for me but looks like good deal. Wish I bought it.
