I'm planning to get myself a couple of chickens for my 40th B'day (which is obviously a long, long way off )
But my family (DH, FIL, my mum, etc) think I don't know what I'm letting myself in for, and I being quite negative about it. FIL and my mum both grew up with chickens, so Iprobably know what they are talking about. Also my friend told me her freind had chickens and they were a lot of work...ruined the lawn, etc.
I already have 3DCs, 2 cats, and 1 goldfish, so am not totally alien to caring for creatures.
We have a reasonable size garden, so room certainly isn't a problem.
Basically I'm looking for some reasurance that I'm not being a total loon to even consider chickens.
