Hello! First time flock carer

[CooperCats]

Hello All!
I’m a first time chicken owner! Starting my own flock was something I thought about for a while. Spending all my time at home for months gave me the perfect opportunity to build my coop/run and raise chicks.
I hail from Northeastern Kansas and my backyard flock consists of 2 Barred Rocks, 2 Australorps, 1 Buff Orpington, and 1 Silverlaced Wyandotte
I’m learning as I go, but of course google doesn’t have the answers to all my questions. So here I am! I look forward to learning more and interacting with more chicken people!

Hello, it's nice to have you here! I lived in NE KS for many years, you'll have a lot of variable weather to deal with...the members over on your state thread should be very helpful. @Pork Pie has given you a link to the state threads at the bottom of his post.

Best wishes!
