Response to husband and chickens

I've had both Buff Orpingtons and Araucanas, and like both of them. I think the Buffs are my favorite breed of chicken. I never had one go broody, though. The two araucanas both hatched out clutches of chicks without our help or knowledge! When we had excess eggs we gave some away to close friends and family and sold enough more to pay for the chicken feed, at least. When we get chicks again, we will finish the chicken tractor and keep them in that, to keep them safe, and hope to have a few eggs to sell -- there is such a big difference between fresh and store-bought that you will never have trouble finding customers.
