Hello from Howell, NJ

[redrose2tea]

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.

Hello and

Best of luck to you!! Chicks are a lot hardier than a lot of folks give them credit for But we spoiled ours rotten and were all over them too!

Don't hesitate to ask any questions you might have, and enjoy the site.
