About

Sharing fascinating facts, hints and tips about caring for chickens, and the sheer pleasure and fun of chickens! Hi! I’m Sheryl, and I have chickens in my garden. If that sounds like an introduction to Chickens Anonymous, that is appropriate, because chickens are addictive! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! When I first got chickens, over seven years ago, I worked out how many eggs we ate in a week, did the maths, and decided we needed two-and-a-half chickens. Well, I didn’t get two-and-a-half chickens, I got five. And over the years I have never had as few as five chickens again. Right now I have fifteen - there always seems to be a good excuse to get another chicken. Over the years I've learned a lot about chickens, what works for me, and the sheer joy of watching baby chicks develop, hatch and grow into happy healthy hens. I hope you enjoy the videos I share, and find them useful. I share videos when I have something to say, so Subscribe to my channel so you find out when there's something new.
