Thread Starter 

Hello,

 

I recently purchased my first chicks for my family and I.  I have one Golden Laced Wyandotte,  Blue Laced Red Wyandotte,  Gold Sexlink,  Silver Ameraucana Bantam,  and Buff Orpington.  My son and I are having a blast raising these chicks!  Looking forward to learning and sharing on this forum.

 

All the best,

 

Heidi

Helen: Daria, do you have to look at everything in such a negative light?

Daria: Could you possibly be referring to the harsh light of reality?

Hello and welcome-byc.gif
Glad to hear everything is going well with your chicks, don't hesitate about asking any questions you might have. Are your chicks hens? If so, look forward to the eggs. wink.png
Enjoy the site.

Hi and welcome to BYC from northern Michigan big_smile.png

Home of the world's cutest dachshund, one crazy blue heeler, two cats,
              one fat pony, and many (but not too many!) chickens

              Can anyone tell me, how many are too many chickens?
