  1. Hi Lori, I love your blog. I'm planning on adding chickens to my urban homestead next spring and I'm trying to learn all I can about them. I followed your link and found your helpful article - thanks.I'm going to sign up for the chicken newsletter too.

    1. Hi ChrisDee,
      So exciting to hear that you are getting chickens. You are wise to learn all you can before! We have been keeping chickens for about 3 years now, and I love it...plan on always have a flock ;-)
