Hello everyone! My name is Phil and I'm planning on keeping a trio of laying hens in my backyard in Richfield, mn starting this spring. I'd go bigger, but 3 is the limit in Richfield. This site has already been most helpful in deciding on a coop/run style and what breeds I'll be keeping. My dad and I are currently in the planning and design process for a 4'x8' 'A' frame style chicken tractor. My ideal stocklist is one speckled sussex, one australorp and a rhode island red that I can raise from baby chicks. My other pets include a loveable hound mutt named sarah and about 20 aquariums full of tropical fish that I breed and sell to fund my hobbies. Hoping to meet some fellow chicken enthusiasts, and maybe even a local breeder or two. Looking forward to learning a lot. Thanks for reading, Phil
Greetings from Kansas, Phil, and ! Great to have you here! I like the 3 breeds you have chosen. Selling fish to fund chickens!! Sounds like a good plan.
