Part 2 - how many poultry do you have after joining byc

[Clay Valley Farmer]

Likely just shy of 200 right now but that number will be going down over the next month.

Before BYC- 3
After BYC- 5
After fining different threads about different types of fowl on BYC- hovering close to 30

had been on BYC a lot longer than have been registered on the forum.
have certainly gotten a lot more educated due to BYC which has helped get closer to our girls ,but unfortunately it hasnt led to impulse chicken buying like other users because am living in residential care and have almost no money [am only on high rate mobility of disability living allowance and basic income support,but the HRM is totaly used up on a motability car and IS has to go towards petrol].
am moving into a different placement this year,and will get all old benefits back again,and the first plan [before actual move] is to get chickens in there.
all depending on the placement size,am hoping to get a large omlet eglu coop and run,and pimp it out- chickin style, its very basic in hennys eglu,health and safety laws prevent us from doing much.

am going to be hatching/growing some chicks for the person who owns this autistic organisation and this centre shortly,woudnt have got the confidence if it wasnt for BYC.

in an ideal world,woud love to live on a non meat/dairy farm,have loads of hens,especialy ex bats and hens from those ridiculous companies wrongly calling themselves free range when theyre no different battery,one male llama,a pair of pet sheep and loads of cats.
have got cousins who have pet bulls so its nothing out of the ordinary in this family.
waffle over and out.

I started with 4. Then met my first 'buddy' on BYC when I replaced 3 of them due to foxes. 2 of those were murdered but I'm up to 8 now

Thanks to a lot of new fencing and a vicious guard dog

Is that how you spell vicious? I would feel so much smarter with a spell check.

Chickens arrive next february. Problems with my mother being ill and major work problems (moved shift so that ok now) left major depression and I wasn't going to get chickens until I could look after them properly so next february will give me the time to recoop recover and get ready.

The 'horse dentist' was here this morning. When he saw the girls he mentioned he sold 1,500 chicks a year! I asked him if he was on BYC and he had never heard of it
