While I don't currently live with my parents, I've been helping them raise their 8 pretty little hens. I'm no expert, though, and appreciate any help I can get!
I love my chickens, but to most people's surprise, they're not my favorite animal! I adore dogs and horses. I never did get a dog. And only one horse. However, throughout my life I've owned 21 hens and 3 roosters. Loved every single one of them!
We first started raising chickens solely for their eggs. However, we quickly fell in love with each and every one of them that they soon became pets, too!
Besides visiting "My Coop", you can also see more about my hens at https://thereapersapprentice.deviantart.com/. I share all sorts of funny/cute videos of them as well as more photography. I even did a timelapse of Baoji, my silkie, as she matured from chick to hen.
