Hello! I’m moving to a new home that comes with chickens.

[Tntcougar75]

I’m moving next month to a new home which has a chicken coop and about 10 chickens. I’m very happy to have found this forum since I don’t know much about how to care for them. I’m here to learn.

Your new home comes with chickens?

My first reaction was, Sweet!

Then I thought, Who moves out of a house and leaves their chickens?!

At any rate, good for you for stepping up to the plate. I hope you fall in love with them (and they with you). Welcome to BYC! Glad you're here!
