Hello, I'm a chicken Newbie.

[Goosechuck]

Hello all,

I am looking forward to learning about chicken husbandry here. I currently have 4 Icelandic chickens, 3 hens and 1 roo. I have my first 4 chicks from them here, they are now 18 days old. I am a horse trainer from Canada and have a 23 acre farm. I will likely have many questions regarding raising them, as they are my first "crop" of chicks I have ever raised.

Thank you all in advance. My roo ChewBAWKa is my profile picture

I have read a bit about Icelandics but have never actually seen one. Are they all as beautiful as your roo?

Welcome to BYC and the many adventures that await you as you raise your chicks!

Welcome to BYC! I looked up Icelandic chickens, looks like those come in lots of pretty colors. Are you still in Canada, or are you in Iceland now? I hope your flock does well.
