Hello from West Virginia

[Yze]

I've been lurking on and off for a couple of weeks as part of my chicken research. I finally decided to not be rude and introduce myself. I don't have any chickens yet; in fact, I don't expect to have any for at least 2 years! But I want to learn as much as I can before I take on new living beings. I haven't been around chickens since I was a kid, so I know bupkis.

Welcome!

Build a large walk-in coop before you order day old chicks from a major hatchery and you'll be off on a great start!

Welcome to BYC! Lots to learn here on this site. I'd start by checking out the Learning Center. Best of luck with your plans!
