(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
New, but was an avid fan for years
(2) How many chickens do you have right now?
4 BR (14 weeks), 5 EE (5-6wks), 2 Maran (5-6wks)
(3) What breeds do you have? See above:)

(4) How did you find out about BackYardChickens.com? Doing google searches for things like pastey butt, and sexing

(5) What are some of your other hobbies? Child wrangling (have 5 under 9), homeschooling, berry picking, and reading

(6) Tell us about your family, your other pets, your occupation, or anything else you'd like to share. We have two Havanese dogs and five kids(4 boys and 1 girl). We live in popular Oregon, near but not too close to weird Portland;). Our home is modest, and has a modest yard. If my husband would let me, I’d be a farmer, but I’m very happy he’s supporting my chicken venture.
