Hello All!

[NuggiesChicks]

Hey everyone! My name is Jennifer, and my husband Rich and I, along with our 3.5 yr old daughter are about to prep for baby chicks! I found this forum and wanted to sign up since it was instantly helpful.
We have talked about chickens for a long time and now we’re ready!
I myself am an RVT (Registered Veterinary Technician) but have minimal experience with birds. So this is great learning for me, as well as teaching our daughter how to care for, respect and watch these little things grow and be members of our family.
Thanks for reading, and we look forward to learning all we can about our soon to be new additions!
