We've decided to raise a few chickens. Since we moved I'm having a hard time finding fresh eggs and chickens at the store here are insanely priced. I grew up with chickens but haven't done anything with them for 50 years. Tractor supply was generous with their knowledge and I'm ready to go. 10 female Barred Rocks should be arriving in the mail either tomorrow or Wednesday. We are so excited. We have our brooder all set up and tested. Any tried and true hints for success are welcome. I figure that we will get started with the ladies and as long as I don't kill the little darlings after a few weeks I'll get some meat birds.
