Hi Everyone!

Hey BYC!

I've been a lurker for a while and finally joined. SO and I bought a 5 acre house a little under a year ago. We went back and forth about getting chickens and well, we did!

We're currently T-4 days til hatch day. We started off with 12 Australorp eggs. Decided on them because they're cold hardy and it gets cold and snowy here. We're down to 8. We're currently converting one of our sheds to a coop with an enclosed run to a fenced "free-ranged" area.

We have four cats (the three in my avatar. Our ginger doesn't much like the group lovings). It's been exciting to see them grow and we both can't wait til they get here!

I hope the hatch goes well, and you have some lovely and adorable fur babies there <3

Hello and welcome to BYC! Glad you joined.
Your shed to coop conversion with an attached run that leads into a secured pen is exactly what I am working on.
