Greetings

Hi all!
I'm Claire, based in the UK. I've had chickens for 5 years now but still consider myself a real novice. I've been reading articles and forum posts on this site for ages, always lurking around but never joining, but I figured go make some chicken friends!
I keep bantams- I have a 5 year old Plymouth and a 5 year old booted (Miriam and Lilian). Recently I added another booted (Holly) and my first Silkie (Lady Olenna). I'm hopefully picking up another silkie tomorrow
My fave thing about keeping my girls is simply watching them (well mainly laughing at them), or the cuddles.

Great to be here, looking forward to meeting you all

Hello, Claire, and welcome to BYC! Glad you joined.
I would enjoy seeing pictures of your bantams. I've always loved them but keep a flock of LF chickens.

Thank you all I’ve spent another couple of hours browsing tonight there’s so much new info to take in

Here’s one of my girls unfortunately I had a bad experience with a breeder today and didn’t get the new silkie I was expecting.

I’m not sure where to post queries- I have a couple of questions about my little silkie. Could anyone point me in the right direction please?
