I took the plunge and picked up 10 chicks - approx 2-1/2 weeks old today. I've never kept chickens before and I'm a nervous nellie constantly checking on them to make sure they're warm enough and seem content. My handy hubby is building them a coop and run. I have a book for reference and now I've got you guys...looking forward to this new adventure.
from Ohio. So glad you joined. Congrats and have fun. 
But we spoiled ours rotten and were all over them too!
