Hi, I'm Steph and live in rural Angus.

I have always lived in the countryside and used to keep chickens, ducks, ponies and things. I currently have chickens, pair of white geese and a heap of (not so little) little chicks which I am rapidly running out of room for!

I hope to install raised veg beds and glass house for next season and extend livestock to include pigs and maybe goats sometime in the not too distant future. Hoping to gleen some advise and swapping a few poultry bloodlines in the future?

Hello bigchicken - only just seen this question, sorry!
I have Light Sussex, Buff Sussex, Cream Legbar, Cuckoo Marans, French Wheaten Marans, Welsommer, Silkie, Araucana, and a few crosses.
Think I'm up to 48.

Well Step Hen you have a few different breeds there plenty eggs. I fancy some bantam cuckoo Scots Dumpy but they are very hard to find. I do like my banties.
