We are a homeschooling family in the Texas Panhandle working on building a homestead! We inherited our first set of hens, 5 Barred Rock, last weekend, from a family member who was no longer physically well enough to care for them.
I love watching how interested the kids are in the chickens, and how friendly this batch is! Even their clucking sounds sweet. We also have rabbits and a veggie garden. We enjoy archery, hunting, camping and fishing as a family. We have a kid that plays basketball & guitar, as well as one that does ballet and plays piano. The toddlers mainly just love learning about the animals around them. I’ve only known about BYC for about a week, it came up when I was doing google searches for different breeds, and it seems very informative so far! I joined in hopes of making informed decisions for which breeds to add to our homestead in the future. If you read this whole thing, I’m really amazed!
Welcome here Mama. What a great intro! You will learn lots here everyone is so helpful . We have coop build experts, sickness gurus etc. What an adventure you are on with the homestead and all those kiddos. Tell us about the possible predators cause there is nothing worse than losing your flock to some jerk predator!
