Finally Got My Chickens

[shlee111]

Hi BYC! My name is Ashley and I'm so excited to finally own a small flock of backyard chickens. We recently moved from to "the country" where we are allowed to have chickens. As soon as we were settled in, we bought 8 pullets from the local feed store. We got 2 Rhode Island Reds, 2 Speckled Sussex, 2 Buff Orpington, and 2 Barred Rocks. One Rhode Island Red didn't make it through it's first night with us (she was the runt), so now we have 7 chicks who are 2 weeks old.
I don't know much about raising chickens, but I"m so excited to finally have the opportunity! They've been so much fun already.
