    We thought raising labs was fun!

    Hi to all, We were thrilled to find the BackYard Chickens website and forum since we are very, very new to chicken raising. My husband bought me a book on raising chickens and we've talked about it and researching it ad nauseum for the last 13 months and we finally took the plunge last...
