G’Day from down under LilCamoHen Welcome!

I wish you all the best in your continued recovery phase.

Sorry that I can not help you with the chicken v dog question, our gal [border collie] is a big softie and accepted the chickens as part of the family. Personally, I have found the Topic of the Week articles a great resource and a one stop shop for questions which may have already been discussed within the BYC membership group. There is an existing discussion Topic of the Week - Dogs and chickens which you might find helpful.

This article might help you decide on what breed of chicken to get: Pickin a Chicken

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.

You might want to also Find Your State Thread and pop in and say hello.

If you would like to share pictures and stories of your flock when they arrive, 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
