Hello from a newbe in OK. USA

[blwptc]

I am Bonnie and my husband is Lewis. I work full time and Lewis is retired.
We are new to the chicken hobby. Lewis bought 5 Rhode Island Red laying hens at an auction. We don't know a thing about them. We will learn as we go. We also have friends that will help us. I have been reading all of the very informative information on BYC.
Thank you for the welcome to the group.
Bonnie

Hello and welcome to BYC!

If you haven't already, take a look at the articles under the Learning Center tab, there is a lot of really informative information there. Since your birds aren't chicks, you might find these 2 sections of the Learning Center of most interest:

https://www.backyardchickens.com/a/maintaining-a-healthy-flock

https://www.backyardchickens.com/a/housing-and-feeding-your-chickens

Good luck with your new flock and if you have questions, feel free to ask!

Nice to meet you Bonnie. Your Rhode Island Reds should give you a lot of eggs - are they old enough to start laying?
