The Beginning

Authors Note: I have been trying to start this blog for a while but I wasn't sure what to say so I am just gonna say it.

My name is Chloe Krumenacher I am the oldest of 3 younger brothers. I could be your average girl but i'm not. My family and I have been raising chickens for 13 years since I was born, we have over 30 chickens right now, 1 turkey, (really 7 but there missing I'll talk about in another post) and 1 dog. I'm not going to name all of the breeds now but I will tell you that we have 1 "batch" of mixed breeds we had 3 roosters but we go rid of them because they were becoming a nuisance to the girls. Then we have another "batch" of black sex links. "Batch meaning, we get chicks around early March we keep them inside until they are about 5 weeks old and of they go to the coop. One the other side is the older girls since we have a double sided coop we can have two "batches." Anyway the little ones go outside and behind the coop we have a fenced in area for them to stay since my mom doesn't like them messing with her flowers. '

The babies that we have now are about 2 months old and the older girls are 1 year we only keep them for 2 years and then they go to the butcher. That is not a fun ride. That is basically my world tucked in the woods with no one to care.
