Hello! Another newbie here :-)

Hi, my name is Madeleine. I live on the Big Island of Hawai`i with my husband and 2 children, a 10 year old boy and 8 year old girl. I am very excited to be getting our first chicks this coming Wednesday. We have ordered 6 hens (4 Wyandottes and 2 Barred Plymouth Rocks) as well as 1 Wyandotte rooster. Thanks for having me!

Greetings from Kansas, Madeleine, and ! Great to have you in our community. Chickens in paradise...sounds nice! As a new chicken keeper you might want to stop by the Learning Center here https://www.backyardchickens.com/atype/1/Learning_Center It's full of great information for every stage of poultry keeping. Additionally, find the Hawaii thread in this link if you'd like to chat with locals https://www.backyardchickens.com/f/26/where-am-i-where-are-you
Aloha and thanks for joining BYC!
