Hi, Ellen.
So, what kind of chickens are you planning to include in your flock?

Not sure yet...i think dual purpose...they are all so pretty it is had to decide

Hello and welcome! I hope you enjoy your flock as much as we do. We'd love to see pics when the chicks arrive.

This is the place to get all kinds of ideas and information. Welcome. I am a relative newbie myself. But there are plenty of seasoned chicken owners who can give good advice.

Hi Ya'll from St Pauls NC.
I just ordered my coop and am researching care of chickens.

I am excited to get started and want to do it right.
I am looking forward to learning loads here in the forum.

Welcome.

Since you said you ordered a coop I'd be sure to read over the threads how to make a production coop worthy to use. Often they are really not that good. It depends on the manufacture but most are only good for about half of the suggested flock size for truly happy birds.
Also fill out your profile including your location. It really helps later if you have any problems that might be geographically isolated.
