She's a retired educator, wife, mother of two, grandmother of one, garden lover, and keeper of her first flock of 5 hens who are now 3 years old. She's looking forward to brooding a few more to expand her flock.
Thank you for the warm welcome on this chilly day! I just borrowed a brooder from a friend. Am planning to expand the flock. Lots to think about__ especially concerned about how well my spoiled girls will take to sharing the run with some new folks. I have space to separate them if needed. But I currently have only one coop for sleeping quarters and nest boxes.
Hi, and glad you joined us.
Remember that hatched eggs will be half roosters, so start making a plan for those.
How exciting! A first hatch.
Keep us updated and include pictures if possible.
Welcome to the backyard!
