I did it!!! Today I got 4 chicks. A RIR, black sex link, Buff Orpington and an Ameraucana. I am pretty excited to take this step. I've been reading about chickens online nonstop. Love this site, so much info. I'm sure this will be my go to place for help. So thanks in advance. :) I want to keep it small while I give this a try but can't wait for fresh, healthy eggs. Looking forward to getting to know my chicks and finding solutions to the challenges that I'm sure will come along.
