Raised in the city and visited the relatives in the country some as a youth.
Never helped with the livestock much. Moved out here not quite country but have some elbow room. Always wanted some chickens for the eggs. Bought 4 Leghorns and 3 Easter Eggers. 2 Eggers went to DIL. Appears I have 3 Roos. 1 Egger named Nugget and 2 I think are Japanese Bantam (not leghorns) Goldie and Omelet. Talk about a plan going wrong. I then bought 3 more chicks: Barred Rock - Loretta, Rhode Island Red - Stella, Easter egger - Amelia.
Built a pretty nice coop with attached run as we have red fox, coons, opossum and red shoulder/tailed hawks, bald eagles. I need to rehome at least the Egger as he starts crowing around 5 and goes till about 6:30 then quite a lot thruout the day.
