Hi everyone! I'm Rachel from Greene County NY. I got into chickens by chance one day when a friend called and asked if I wanted a rooster from a barn near her house. She said they were trying to starve him out and didn't want him anymore. Of course I said yes... I'm a sucker for a critter in need... even though I knew nothing about owning chickens! He was a sweet old Leghorn With a gimpy frostbitten foot and I just loved him. Not wanting him to be lonely I went out the next day and got him 3 hens (still not knowing anything about owning chickens!) And he perked right up! Well that was about a year ago and Ol' Bill my leghorn has since passed away, but I've been collecting chickens (and knowledge about owning them!) Since then, and I absolutely love it! I still have lots to learn so I'm hoping all y'all can help me along the way!

Hello there and welcome to BYC! :frow

Aww...sounds like you gave Ol' Bill a second chance at life! I am sorry he is now gone. :hugs We sure do miss our flock members.

I hope you enjoy being a BYC member. There are lots of friendly and very helpful folks here so not only is it overflowing with useful information it is also a great place to make friends and have some fun.

BYC has Topic of the Week discussions which I have found to be a great resource, informative and sometimes entertaining; so definitely worth checking out.

If you would like to share Pictures and Stories of your flock, you have come to the right place. BYC’ers never tire of these and do not back away slowly or commence eye rolling when the photo album or home videos come out ;)

Including your general location on your profile will assist others. Location, climate, season etc can be important factors when members are responding to any questions you may have and vice versa.
