Hello From Texas

Hi all! I'm new to raising chickens and looking forward to taking in all of the great knowledge on this site. Our city recently passed an ordinance allowing up to six chickens. Cannot wait to get started!

Good for you Bob. So many people are not allowed to have any chickens. Hopefully this will work out well and in the future they will add to that number.

Hello, Bob, and welcome to BYC! Glad you joined.
Congratulations on being able to get chickens! Don't rush out too fast. You need to have your coop and run ready before you even chicks if that is your intention.
