OK, I am new- somehow I have not been able to discover where the instructions are that tell me how to join in posting messages- I am admittedly not the most computer literate person out there!
However, I gather I am supposed to introduce myself?
Have Arabian horses, have cats, and the neighbor's chickens range my yard and gardens, and I have fallen in love- one of them has started sleeping up in the rafters of my horse barn- my neighbor is OK with it, believe me, I called her to find out if it was ok that they spent so much time at my place.
They help me garden - well, they scratch out the small weeds and wait for me to dig up worms and bugs. I am considering getting my own and am researching to find chickens that are pretty, docile, cold hardy, good egg producers and different than my neighbors - so far I think Australorps, Speckled Sussex, Silver Laced Wyandottes and Easter Eggers.
So, did I do this right?

Welome,

and Yes you did right.

You will love the site and learn all you want to know.

Enjoy yourself.

Looks like you did the tech stuff the right way. It is easy to get lost on this site, isn't it?

I found lots of helpful advice under the Frequently Asked Questions part of the Index (the index is listed in the blue bar at the top of each page).

I have Easter Eggers and Plymouth Rocks, both of which are supposed to be winter-hardy and sweet. (Mine are still young; time will tell!)

Welcome!
 
Thank you for the welcomes! William - tell me about your Australorps! I am not yet set up, need a coop, etc. I also will probably want to look for pullets that are just getting to the laying age- I have to work and am gone 8 hours M-F. . . .too scared to get sweet little chicks if I am not there to guard their every silly movement.
Someone said they had Easter Eggers- none of the pictures I have seen seem to look like the others-what DO they usually look like?
Thanks again!
Beth
