chickens up until 12 years ago when my job had me on the road... as soon as I knew I was going to leave that job I ordered 50 chicks and 2 packages of honeybees (they will come in a couple of months)...

the chicks I am getting are an assortment of most all kinds of egg layers (including some fancy breeds as requested by my son's partner )
