Hello peeps. I haven't been on in a while. I was checking on on east Tennessee thread. But it looks like it had a melt down. So I guess I'll hang my hat here. I breed EE's and Olive Eggers.

Hello,

I live in Robertson county in between Springfield and White House. I used to raise chickens, and am now getting back into it (My chicken yard is next to my dog pen, and my weimy loves chickens, so I had to design a system that the chickens wouldn't fly into the dogs pen.)


I am currently brooding 55 chicks, and 4 ducklings /img/smilies/smile.png About 2/3's of the chicks are Rhode Island Reds for Eggs, and the rest are Cornish X Rocks from McMurray for meat.


I will be getting in around 30 turkey poults late April for meat as well.


I have a 3 tier brooder system from CQF (1 brooder and 2 grow out boxes) that works beautifully, and will probably be getting an incubator from them for chicks and quail.


Let me know if your around me, love to make some feathered friends /img/smilies/smile.png

My family and I are moving to TN in a few weeks and we want to be in the Nashville area (like within 60 miles in any direction from Nashville). It's important to us that we live in a town that allows backyard chickens. We've been looking at the Springfield/White House area and I noticed you're from there and have chickens. Can you tell me more about what's required to get started in that area with BYC? I've tried to find more info on BYC.com and have scoured the Internet without much luck. Do you have to live on agriculture zoned land? Do you have to have a huge amount of land in order to have BYC? We will likely be renting for the first year or so that we live there so we probably won't be getting any chicks until after that but we are hoping to at least stay in the same town for our kids' sakes. That's why we're trying to pick the right town now. Any help/answers you could give is greatly appreciated.
