What do you raise your chickens for?

[adrikeen]

I actually didn't choose to raise chickens, "they" chose me. Seriously. I came home one 4th of July weekend to a Leghorn rooster running around my yard. I do not live in an area where there would be loose chickens around (years later this still remains a mystery). Well, I fell in love and one thing lead to another (enter chicken math) and now I "raise" bantam chickens just because I luv their fluffy little selves! (the eggs are a bonus to hubby aka "Chef" )

What do you raise your chickens for? I'm just curious to see. If you want to, comment below why you raise them that way.

i find that my chickens relax me and their fun to watch and
