After 30 years of wanting chickens, I finally have a little flock (actually bigger than planned-it was an accident). I've been reading the BYC forums for months and all of the information has been so helpful as my husband and I built our coop, and selected our chickens and have been raising them. Our ladies haven't begun laying yet and our rooster has firmly taken charge of his ladies. They are so much fun. So we are on our way. Now to prepare for winter...
 
Hi :welcome

Glad you could join the flock! Congrats on getting your chickens adventures started after waiting so long :clap What breed/s have you started out with? Hope you get your first eggs soon, it's always nice to find those little treasures in the nest box.

Wishing you the very best of luck for the future and enjoy BYC :frow

Hi! I have 18 pullets; 9 Ameraucanas and 9 Rhode Island Reds, and a young Rhode Island Red rooster named Elvis. I didn't mean to have that many chickens but I had to order by breed in lots of ten. I was then going to sell back some to end up with the amount I wanted. Our neighbor said he would take the rest off my hands and then darned if he didn't! Two died, one within the first week and then I had to dispatch one to the celestial coop because of a severe cross beak problem.
We can hardly wait to get our first eggs and those chickens are definitely great stress relief! :)
