Hi just wanted to introduce myself, like the page suggested names Jen and we have 2 5 week old hens, 2 baby chicks about a week old and 1 baby chick (still at the hatchery)that will be joining our girlson Friday. I haven't owned any chickens since I was a child and have a child of my own now who loves animals (& eggs) so what better pets, right? So our girls are Ferma (barred rock), Sally (welsummer), Natalie (ameraucana), Silverada (silver Wyandotte)& orpington baby (arriving soon). We also own fish, cats and a dog. Any tips or advice is welcomed, & I look forward to interactions with everyone here, you guys all seem very knowledgeable. Thanks in advanced
And congratulations on getting your new chicks! There’s so many helpful, knowledgeable folks here and I’m sure you’ll find this site a very useful resource. I hope you enjoy it as much as we all do.
Jen
It sure is great raising them with your own children! 
Are you going to get other farm animals?
We are glad you joined our flock!
