Honestly, they are great birds. We have 2 boys freeranging together and neither one has ever gotten the least bit aggressive with us and they are very polite to their girls as well. No missing...

Leghorns are great egg laying chickens. They are friendly to other Leghorns and can easily fly. The only problems is that they are bad in the pecking order and they can make a mess of the yard....

When I put backyardchickens.com in the address window, as I have done for months, I get re-directed to a strange looking channelawardscenter site. Looks suspicious to me. I can get into BYC through a yahoo search but not directly.

I don't want to take a survey or be registered to win an ipad or whatever.

What is up?

That's very odd! What are the exact steps you are going through? What browser / version are you on? Have you tried another browser?

We're definitely not running any "take a survey win and iPad" type of things.

My guess is that it may just be your computer or system.

Anybody else seeing this?

I am using IE, not sure of the version. I think I have it figured out. I had put in the address bar backyardchicken.com (forgot the s). The survey is probably a gift from bing?

BYC is working fine now that I use the right URL

Thanks for the reply
