Hello From West Central Illinois!

Hello BYC community!

I am new to the chicken world as this spring is the first time I have owned chickens. It's been quite the experience so far. My wife is also a member of this forum, but I'm unsure of her user name.

We currently have 100 meat chicks (Cornish Cross) and a variety of egg chicks. I look forward to the discussions here and learning more about raising chickens.
