BackYard Chickens - Learn How to Raise Chickens

Tami2

Thank you very much!

That is Levi, my African Grey. He is quite the character. He doesn't know what to make of the little chickies. I've only had them a little over two weeks & Monday Levi was chirping like a baby chicken. I knew that wouldn't take long.

Aww! That's adorable!
Please do keep me updated on how they're all doing!
And feel free to PM me if you have any questions or would like help with navigation. I think you're getting the hang of it, though!
Thanks for the follow as well!

Tami2

Thanks, he can be. He is mostly all attitude and seriously needs to learn some patience. Levi is as egocentric as they come.

I'm really looking forward to my new journey with the baby girls.

As far as the forum goes, I'm getting there, thanks. Much better than when I first joined. I take it you are a moderator?
I will definitely take you up on your offer, if needed. Thank you for that.

I have no idea what following someone on the forum actually means. I know what it means on other social media platforms. But, not like this type a message board forum. I'm sure I'll learn pretty quickly. I'm guessing, I'll get a notification & maybe an email about the activity of people I follow?

Tami2

Sorry for so many, I was over my limit & it wouldn't post.

No, I am not a moderator, just a member who likes to help out whenever he can! Moderators have a badge on their profiles that says "BYC Staff".
Following someone really doesn't do much at all. The amount of people you are following or the amount of followers you have doesn't affect anything...

...The one thing I've noticed is you can see the latest activity of the members you are following if you click your Username at the top right corner of your screen.

Click/Tap "News Feed".

As far as I know, I don't believe you get any notifications or any emails of their latest activity.

One thing that helped me when I first joined BYC was knowing how to adjust one's preferences.
This will minimize the amount of emails and notifications you will get. At one point, I was getting hundreds of notifications, and I didn't want to look through all of them.
