Hi MassChix, there are about 33 of us that I know of that live in Massachusetts.  If you do a search in the Where am I for "Boston" or "Massachusetts" you can find them all.

Thank you.  Very new to this site and very excited about my 6 chicks.  I did a search like you suggested and found many members!

Thanks again!

Hi Masschix! Welcome to BYC. I am in Mass also and fairly new to chickens myself. This is a great forum.
Everyone is incredibly helpful and willing to offer whatever they can to help. big_smile

Glad to know that I'm not the only newbie with chicks in Mass!  I absolutely love this forum...I have learned so much and have become incredibly addicted!!!!  My husband thinks I may have gone over the edge....all I talk about are our 6 new babies!  I got them this past Saturday, they are Araucanas (probably not pure as I have recently learned).  Anyone else?

I am still waiting for the dozen chicks we ordered in March. This is making me stronger, right?

welcome to the board. I am in North centralish MA, too. There are a few of us around for sure. Any pictures of your flock?

You know....I talk about them so often you would think I would have a photo, but I haven't taken any yet.  I guess I better get the camera out.

Glad to have someone else in the central mass area.  I live in Barre....only about an hour from both VT and NH.

Hi Everyone,

I'm in MA, too!  I'm in Rockport, MA. We've had chickens for about 7 or 8 years but I've just joined this group.

Nice to meet you all!
