Hello there! I've been lurking on this site for the past couple months now and have learned SO much great info by reading here! I'm new to chickens, never even been AROUND them before but have been interested in getting some for the past few months. DH and I have been planning out our coop and admiring others on here (which are all SO nice!) and am excited to say that I ordered 4 leghorn and 4 RIR pullets today at the feed store! I can't wait until they are big enough to be moved outside to their future coop and also be able to occasionally free range a small portion of our 30+ acres! YAY!!! My chicks are supposed to arrive in mid-May and it can't get here fast enough! This is worse than waiting for Christmas!
from Ohio I have chickens but just put eggs in the incubator this week and already i can't wait to hatch day. Gotta expand the coop
Quote:Thank you! I was offered an incubator from a friend, but just don't have the time to dedicate to them for the next month. I will likely give it a whirl next year when I expand. HA! Listen to me..... already planning to expand. I'm addicted already and don't even have my chicks yet!
from MN! I know just how you feel! For a while before the chicks arrived, they were the first thing I thought of in the morning and the last thing I thought of at night
