Hi everyone,
Not only am I new to BYC chicken keeping, I've also never joined a forum of any kind before! I'm just going to thank you in advance for your patience (because I know I'll need it!
) as it is going to take me a little while to figure out the posting, picture-sharing, searching and replying.
I have just starting keeping backyard chickens, although they are technically still house chickens at five weeks old. Need to finish that coop and quickly! I have four EEs and two white silkies. My eight-year-old son and I have had so much fun with our chicks so far. We have lots to learn about this new adventure and are so glad that this forum exists.
