G’Day from down under definitely not a farmer Welcome!

I hope you enjoy being a BYC member. There are lots of friendly and very helpful folks here so not only is it overflowing with useful information it is also a great place to make friends and have some fun.

You might want to also Find Your State Thread and pop in and say hello.

Personally, I have found the Topic of the Week articles a great resource and a one stop shop for questions which may have already been discussed within the BYC membership group.

If you would like to share pictures and stories of your flock, you have come to the right place. BYC’ers never tire of these and do not back away slowly or commence eye rolling when the photo album or home videos come out

I hadn't worked with poultry for about 45 years. I am deathly allergic to poultry meat and Mild allergic to poultry feathers, but I can still eat eggs. However, during and after a local agricultural auction while trying to acquire some goats and hogs, I happened upon some deals on poultry that I couldn't pass up. Eight Rhode Island red hens, in full molten of indeterminate age at ninety cents each. When stopping by at local tractor supply store as a stop gap supply for feed I happened upon some clearance chicks. I wound up with a half-dozen is a brown and 8 Leghorn chicks for under a dollar a piece. When I hit a another tractor supply for a waterer since mine had vanished many many many years ago I was able to pick up a half dozen of the Cornish cross chicks for a quarter a piece. that'll make my relatives that can eat chicken happy. Ira figured a refresher course on poultry rearing would come in handy and the site seems to contain an Eclectic and pretty good mix of information that I was looking for it.
You never know where a good deal going to find you but one thing I did learn, never try to purchase goats around an Islamic holiday. Although pigs go at a really good price then!

I like you already!
