This is a group for people who keep chickens (or other poultry) or are interested in keeping them. We will cover all aspects of backyard poultry keeping: Free range or enclosed pens, different types of birds, the laws, breeding, eggs and hatching, egg recipes, and the just plain fun of watching them run around. Come and join us and share tips and experiences, meet other poultry enthusiasts, and just hang out with some very nice folks. Southern CT, Westchester and the Tri-state area are all welcomed!...Kids are welcomed too!

    "Hi, my name is Jeanne and I've had chickens for 2 years. I built my coop from a little tykes playhouse and my son and girlfriend enclosed the space using the footprint of the old swingset. I love having the laying hens and would like to add two."

    "Hey guys, I would have sworn someone posted an announcement that they were showing their documentary on backyard birds sometime soon, but I can't find the post. Is this true or did I imagine it? Thanks! Heather"
