Hi Martha,

!

Nice to have another Texan on board. I used to raise chickens in S. Austin. Now I raise them here in South Carolina!

Martha, what kind of chickens are you going to order?
I just picked up a dozen Black Australorp babies. We are building a larger chicken house, and turning the one we have now into a brooding house.
