Hi,

I started reading this forum this past spring when I had planned on getting some chickens. However, plans went awry and we didn't get them.

So, I have been away from here for a while, but I plan to get chickens this coming spring for sure.

It seemes like a good idea to use the remaining fall and the winter to read and research and be gathering what I will need. That way I will be prepared when I do get the babies.

Most likely I will just get four or five chickens. I eat lots of eggs, so when they start to lay it will be a treat.

I am married to a great dh and we have a 9 yo old dd whom I homeschool. She will be helping me to plan for the chicks as well as helping to care for them. She is a member of 4H but has no interest in doing a chicken project. We just want to enjoy them and reap the benefits of fresh eggs.

I look forward to learning more and am counting down until I can order my chicks.

There's no membership rule here that says you have to have chickens RIGHT NOW to belong to the BYC community. We'll accept you and want to talk to you all the same. (BTW, I don't have chickens at the moment, myself...

It's kind of hard when I live in a townhouse!).

See you around the forum!
 
if a city slicker like me can raise chickens with the help of this wonderful bunch...anyone can...

Welcome! I am fairly new myself. I bought some random baby bantys last spring. I should have done more reasearch on breeds first because one in particular was really loud and I got reported to animal control. Now I am petitioning the city to keep chickens. BUT anyway, its going well. We also started homeschooling this year and I want to get my kids into 4H. small world.
