September Chicken Update

Unfortunately, I don't have any chickens yet. I have had to wait even longer before I can finally meet my chickens. I'm going to be moving into a new house, sometime (hopefully soon) before the Summer of 2015.

*UPDATE*

I will have my chickens before the end of Summer 2014 !!!

You Know :

I don't want to be somebody who is willing to go to the supermarket to buy some eggs yet I wouldn't know how to raise and care for real chickens if my life depended on it.

Another thing is this :

So many of my family and friends act as if I've gone mad when I mention raising my own chickens for eggs. It only makes me want to Raise My Own Chickens even more and prove to them that eggs don't come from grocery stores!

I want to succeed with raising chickens and show people just how easy it is to raise your own chickens. Free-Range Organic "Farm" raised chickens are better for your health, better for the environment, the process is better for the chickens, it's just plain better for your family!

Now here is how I'm preparing for my chickens :

I'm learning all kinds of information about raising chickens. I'm building a small-scale chicken coop, since I won't have too many chickens until I get the hang of things and move onto a few acres of land. *My Farm!* :-) I'm researching which type of chickens I want and where I'll buy them from. I'm deciding if I want to hatch eggs or buy live chicks... I'm also going to be writing articles about egg farming for this blog and for other sites. I will be posting the links for any chicken and/or poultry related articles here on this blog so Stay Tuned!

See you next time,

P.S. I'm considering getting a duck or two for my turtle pond, we'll see... :}

Chick Update

I have done plenty of research and I feel that I am ready to raise some baby chickens now.

I will be purchasing about 15 baby chicks (all females) of assorted breeds and colors.

When the hens eventually grow up they will lay eggs, which I will collect, clean and refrigerate.

I will have my very own supply of fresh eggs for breakfast every morning!

The chicks that (I think) I've decided to bring home will eventually lay brown, tan, speckled, light green to olive and white eggs. I'm really excited I can hardly wait to see my first egg! Even though that will be months from now.

I don't have any chicks yet but I plan to bring some home, sometime within the month of June. If not June then definitely July.

June - July 2009 : Introducing the SunnyStars Chicken Coop.

O.k. It might help if I got some pictures and I'm working on that. I've learned so much about raising chickens and it makes me want to do it even more. I think everybody should raise their own chickens but that's a whole other story.

I will be taking pictures, recording video and writing articles throughout the entire chicken raising and egg farming process. So that, if your interested, you too can raise your own chickens and have farm fresh eggs any time that you want them.

This is going to be an adventure! The Urban Chicken Coop Adventure! Unless you like the thought of your breakfast eggs coming from chickens that get abused daily then I suggest you stick around and enjoy learning from my experience.

Stay Tuned for important chicken updates.

As always , Thanks for stopping by!
