These are my first chickens, gifts from a daughter for Christmas. Once they started laying, it's rare to have a day without one egg from each hen. They come when I call them, stay close to the...

Hi, from my Lil Chicky Coop . So I was thinking a while back that I wanted some baby chicks, but nowhere to house them. So guess I'll have to build me a Lil Chic key Coop. My journey begins, I searched the net and found BYC and here I am.

I searched through all the info and decided I needed a plan for my Lil Chickie Coop so I found one I liked and ordered it and am in the process of finishing it up.

Ordered my first chicks from Ideal Poultry the Surprise Special (pullets only) They are a week old today. I posted pictures in What Breed or Gender or These. Whatever they turn out to be they are wonderful little Chicky's. I am so happy with my Chickie's and to have found BYC.

Would like to know of any swaps or sales of chickens in my area. Thanks

In our life 1 Chihuahua 10 yrs old, 1 Pomeranian 2 yrs old, 3 Cockatiel's 9 years old and 24 assorted Pullet Chicks 9 weeks old

Hi and welcome to BYC from northern Michigan

Check in the social section for the chickenstock and meetings listings

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?
