New to the site. Signed up after all my previously googling of questions kept bringing me here. Just bought my first batch of chicks (since age 7). Loving them!
Hi and welcome to BYC. You'll find lots of info in the Learning Centre https://www.backyardchickens.com/atype/1/Learning_Center, and if you have a specific topic in mind, just type it in the search box - there's a wealth of information on past and present threads.
I have 2 buff orpington girls, 4 Cochin girls, a Cochin cockerel, and we had what I believe is a phoenix/polish cross adult roo show up one day and adopt us.
Welcome to Backyard chickens!! Those sound like great breeds! I have 4 buff orpingtons. No Cochins yet, but I would love some partridge cochins. I hope you have fun on here!
