Greetings and welcome to BYC Lilla! So glad you joined us. There's a wealth of info, knowledge and experience shared in the multitude of threads. Browse around and see what interesting stuff you can find. By all means post away when the desire strikes you, especially if you have questions (provide as much detail/info as possible and pictures truly help)... With all the great folks here, generally someone will respond in no time at all. Please make yourself at home!

Oh, if you haven't done so already, PLEASE put at least your general location in your profile. It could be very important if/when you ask for or offer help or advice. You know, climate issues and such. Old folks like me will never remember from this thread. To add it, mouse hover over Account top right and a drop down will appear. Click on Personal Details and scan down. You'll see the spot for Location. Then go to the bottom and save changes. Thanks! Hope you enjoy the site!

G’Day from down under Lilla Welcome!

I hope you enjoy being a BYC member. There are lots of friendly and very helpful folks here so not only is it overflowing with useful information it is also a great place to make friends and have some fun.

You might want to also Find Your State Thread and pop in and say hello.

BYC has a Learning Centre and also Topic of the Week discussions which I have found to be a great resource and a one stop shop for questions which may have already been discussed within the BYC membership group. A few which might be of interest to you at this stage are:
Topic/Question of the week - Brooding and supplementing heat for chicks
Topic of the Week - Raising Chicks
Topic of the Week - Raising People Friendly Poultry

If you would like to share Pictures and Stories of your flock, you have come to the right place. BYC’ers never tire of these and do not back away slowly or commence eye rolling when the photo album or home videos come out

Best wishes and good luck!

Hi Lilla, it's nice to have you here! Read up on the links you've been provided, ask questions, and relax...if raising chicks was brain surgery, I wouldn't be doing it

Thanks for joining us!

Hello and welcome!
Barred rocks are really good layers, and you will love their pretty feather pattern once they get older! Congrats and good luck on your journey, we are so happy you joined

Hiya Lilla, . It's not rocket science, it's just chicken science . I'm sure you'll do great! There are lots of knowledgeable folks willing to help and many educational articles and resources to explore. Hope you enjoy your time here and more importantly your experience w/ your new chicks
