Hello,
I am from NW Arkansas, I won 6 chicks in a contest at my local food co-op. I have a Cuckoo Maran, Americauna, Austrolorp, two Buff Orpingtons?, and a Silver Laced Wyandotte. They are 8 weeks old, we just got them into the 6x4 coop we finished last weekend, and I am finishing an 8x4 mobile foraging pen I am going to connect to the coop via tunnels. Never kept chickens before, it has been a fun experience so far!

Hello there and welcome to BYC!

Sounds like you are enjoying your flock. If you have having trouble with one of your birds, you might want to post a question in our emergency section for more help....https://www.backyardchickens.com/f/10/emergencies-diseases-injuries-and-cures

The quicker you jump on a situation, the better chance you have to save them.

I actually did post in the forum, the reason I finally got to starting my account was because of sick chick advice. I think I need to create a more effective post though, I haven't gotten any replies yet...
