Hello BYC

[Gitche Gumee Guy]

Hi all, figured I should make an account since I've been utilizing this site for a lot of info as I get started with a small backyard chicken flock. We have 4 Golden Laced Wyandotte hens that are 4 weeks old now and currently in a nice brooder in the garage. I'm in the process of planning a new coop, which is really what brought me to this site. I'm no stranger to raising birds (turkeys and ducks), but this is the first time I've raised chickens so I'm still needing to learn a lot.

I'm looking forward to learning more from the members on the forum.
