I'm Tanner, the guy behind the clucks and feathers at ChickenRise.com. I guess you could say I'm the chief chicken wrangler, but really, I'm just a regular dude who fell head over heels (or should I say beak over talons) for the world of chicken raising. My journey into the realm of poultry parenthood started when I decided to trade my city slicker shoes for some good ol' muck boots. One day, I found myself elbow-deep in straw, surrounded by a bunch of curious cluckers. And you know what? I haven't looked back since. ChickenRise.com? Well, that's my little corner of the internet where I spill the beans (or should I say feed?) on everything chicken-related. From coop hacks to eggscellent recipes, I'm on a mission to share the highs, lows, and downright hilarious moments of raising these feathered friends. When I'm not busy wrangling chickens or typing away at the keyboard, you can probably find me in the coop, swapping stories with my flock or perfecting the art of the chicken dance (trust me, it's a thing). So, if you're as crazy about clucks and coops as I am, join me on this wild, feather-filled ride at ChickenRise.com. Because let's face it, life is just better with a bunch of feathery friends by your side! Yours in feathers and fun, Tanner
