Welcome to BYC!

Congrats on the new chicks! Yes, if you have never raised chicks or chickens before, it can be a bit daunting at first. So the more you know, the better you feel!

On this note, you will want to stop by our learning center for lots of great articles on raising and keeping your new flock. I will also include the link to a particular page on raising your baby chicks...

All the basics are there in our learning center, including our coop pages so you can get some idea on what you will build...
