Hello everyone, my name is Dianna. We have a small flock (6)of laying hens, 4 RIR (hopefully pullets) 8 weeks old, and 2 barnyard mix roosters. We also have a trio (rooster and two hens) of RIR bantams and a breeding pair of Double Silver Laced Barnevelder bantams. I have a background in raising and caring for livestock. The past 17 years we have raised alpacas. I am familiar with the birthing of kittens, dogs, and alpacas but hatching chicks is new for me. Our first chick hatched in the incubator this morning. This is all exciting. However, even with the great help I have found on this forum and other sources, I am feeling a little out of my element.

Welcome to BYC!!
 
Welcome to the coop! I use the Forums and Articles tabs at the top of the page to do research. You can get lost for hours. It's nice to know you are minutes away from getting help with questions and emergencies! I always check in the "What's New" section as well at the top of this page. This way I can read how I may have a similar question or help give some advice.
