First timers in Middletown, Va

[Sm0ke]

This is the first time for my wife and raising chickens. While we have been doing a lot of reading any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

Greetings from Kansas, Sm0ke, and

! Great to have you in our community! The advice I give all first time chicken keepers is to read and absorb what is in the BYC Learning Center. Do you and you will be well on your way - it gives info on raising chickens throughout their life cycle, as well as information on coops, predators, nutrition, egglaying, etc. Have fun and enjoy your birds - ask any questions you may have along the way! Best of luck!

Hi! I just moved to Middletown too. Where did you find out about if there are zoning rules around having chickens. I'm in town, so I wasn't sure if it would be ok. Welcome and thanks!
