Here is my interview update! Hard to believe it’s been 6 years
6 years later and I’m still keeping chickens! In the current flock are 9 hens and my rooster Uriah. Sadly Napoleon passed away 4 years ago, he is terribly missed. I do have one hen left from the OG flock who just turned 8! In between my member interview and this update I did fulfill my dream of becoming a duck mom, but one passed away from a hawk attack and the other went to a new home and got married to a lady duck.
In addition to chickens, my family now has two dogs (Beau and his son Charlie!), two rabbits, a barn cat, and occasionally we have some beef cows but we don’t have any right now.
Besides poultry keeping, I’m now in college studying zoology, and I hope to get accepted into vet school to become a large animal/farm vet. BYC was actually a major inspiration for me and made me realize how much I like taking care of animals and learning about their medical needs. Thanks to everyone who put up with me as a kid on here who loved answering questions I also work as a sailing instructor during the summers, and I still love to read and draw.
