Hi all, new member from N. CA

Hi, just found this site and thought I’d give it a go. I don’t currently have chickens, but my neighbor behind me has about 70-80 (large flock) and I’m starting to get the chicken bug.

Welcome to Backyard Chickens. This is a great place to explore and hang out. Hey have fun do yourself a big favor by a small shed you can walk in put a few shelves for roost.
Drill a few wholes use hardware cloth to cover them for ventilation.

Hiya, and welcome to BYC!

To help you with that chicken bug, we have a Learning Center full of awesome articles written by our members about raising chicks and chickens. Then, you'll need a coop, and have a Coop forum full of coops built by our members. Some of these have instructions.

We're glad you're here!

Hello and welcome to BYC! Glad you joined.

Build yourself a nice coop and run and lure some of the neighbors chickens over!

Good morning! Welcome to BYC. While I don't chicken-napping, @DobieLover has a good plan. And really, who needs that many chickens? (I only keep between 40 to 50 )
They would probably love for you to feed a few of them.
