Hiya, Yassine, and welcome to BYC! What a pretty name you have!

Very smart to plan ahead before getting chickens! Be sure to check out the articles as you'll learn so much from them, but we're here too if you ever have questions!

My plan is to start small with a few chickens and a simple coop,

First tip: Learn chicken math.

Always go larger than you anticipate because it'll happen, and you'll be so glad you did! Each chicken needs 4 square feet in the coop. 10-15 sq ft in the run if you make one of those.

Hi Yassine! Yes, farm fresh eggs are hard to beat and collecting eggs everyday is a fun chore.

There are many articles on chicken breeds here and you can learn lots by hanging out in the Breed & Gender ID Forum.

It's nice to have you here! Thanks for joining and welcome to BackYard Chickens!
