Therapy chickens wit

[marynollie]

Hi, my name is Mary and I bought chickens almost two years ago for therapy after having lost my son to suicide. I started with one breed but now I have 5 other breeds as well. It was the best decision on a whim I ever made. I have Polish, Turken, Astrolorp, Americauna, and miniature chickens.

Welcome to BYC. I am so sorry you experienced trauma like that.

I also find chickens to be calming, healing, and therapeutic. I'm so glad you found them and us! Your girls (and do I spy a boy?) are beautiful.

Hello Mary, and welcome to BYC! Glad you joined.
I'm terribly sorry about your son. I'm glad that the chickens have offered you some therapy. They are indeed very good at that.
