If you have a special "slant" on how you do it (as a newbie, fed organically, free ranged, with dogs, a certain breed, etc.), put that in your post too. I bet you'll get lots of followers.

One of the more popular authors of our local paper decided to raise chickens! Here's today's article. She mentions BYC, but only in the side bar of the actual paper, not on the online version.

Hey BYC friends - I'm taking a public speaking class to gain some self-confidence.
I had to give my speech last night. Guess my topic!
For visual aids, I brought some blown-out tiny pullet eggs to show how chickens get
