I just came across your site. My husband and I are thinking of getting 2-3 laying hens this spring and building a coop in our backyard. I'll be following along and learning from your experiences :)
Where do you get your chicks from? We're in CT, too.
Congrats on the eggs! One of my B's started laying Christmas Eve, our 'Christmas Miracle' - ha. I surely hope the other 2 start soon, 1 small egg every other day is not paying their feed bill.
My name is Paul Godfrey and I have been producing my own foods for many years now, I grow herbs and vegetables, keep poultry for eggs and for the table and keep sheep and pigs for all kinds of wonderful produce. I would like to share my adventures with others so have started a website. www.thegoodlife-online.co.uk

I got the Rhode Island Reds from Salem Feeds on Rt 82 in Salem.
mypetchicken.com will ship via US Mail as few as 3 chicks. They are located in Norwalk, CT, but only sell via the mail.
