Hi everyone! No feathery friends just yet, but wanted to thank you guys for the wonderful information and insights I have gathered from this community since I decided I wanted some chickens! Barnvelders are my object of my new found affection!

Welcome to BYC!

I don't know much about these birds, but I wish you luck in finding and working with them!

If you have any questions about anything, feel free to ask.

Enjoy all your new adventures and welcome to our flock!

Hello and Welcome To BYC! Barnvelders are a beautiful breed, can see why you've picked them, in case you haven't seen it there is a nice thread on them in the Breeds section https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/...ders-lets-work-together-and-improve-the-breed
You might also like to check out the Florida state thread for your neighbors https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/305793/florida-always-sunny-side-up

Thanks for the warm welcomes. My search is on. Kelsie, I actually have read every single post of the let's improve the breed thread after I decided on the Barnies. I probably have 60 hours research in. Mostly with BYC. I am hooked!

I hope you find everything you need to know! Don't forget to take a look at BYC's very useful learning center (If you haven't already)! Glad to have you with us.

Well, I've done all my research to get started, I've got my brooder ready, the Barnvelder chicks are coming from a breeder in May, coop is being built and will be ready end of the month, and now all I have to do let us wait! Uggh! Glad I have BYC to keep me occupied!
