Hello there and welcome to Backyard chickens! I am so happy you decided to join us, and redsox gave you amazing advice on becoming a bit more socially active! When I first joined, I felt the way you do, I could not figure out how to navigate the site, I felt embarrassed to ask questions, and I did not think anybody would answer the questions if I asked them. Boy, was I wrong, BYC has proved to be friendly, helpful, and the most fun chicken loving bunch you ever did see! I hope you have fun on BYC!
