Checking in

[roadwarrior]

Hi, I am starting out with 3 (19 week old) ISA Browns on my humble 3/4 acre lot about half an hour away from Canada's national capital of Ottawa. I have no prior experience in this field and I am the first of my immediate family and friends to try my hand at keeping chickens. I am currently attending the Youtube and Podcast fast track education. I have just received my copy of "The chicken health handbbok", second edition, by Gail Demerow as it was highly recommended by some experts. Looking forward to learn from your expertise as well, cheers!

peanut coop, I love your avatar- with your bird standing up to punches from the cat. I am not a cat person.

I am a kitty person... But it's so funny.
