Heard this was the place for crazy chicken people...

Whoa! @Joeschooks I’m in love with your coop. I may have to pick your brain later about your setup.

Sure Although the run area is still the same I've got a bigger, 7x5 coop now which is a "factory seconds" ebay shed that I've converted. I've also added some cool features that make my life much easier! Always happy to share and help others learn from my mistakes

G'Day from down under Kylo_Hen Welcome and Congratulations!



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.

BYC has Topic of the Week discussions which I have found to be a great resource, informative and sometimes entertaining; so definitely worth checking out.

If you would like to share Pictures and Stories of your flock and/or other critters, 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

Thanks! I named one of our chicks Kylo Hen for my nephew and niece who are obsessed with Star Wars. I’m in Massachusetts too! Woohoo

lol, my brother once convinced me to name a chick Spider-Man-Girl. When I clarified that he wanted Spider-Woman, he just said
“NO! My chicken’s name is SPIDER-MAN-GIRL!
