Hi from Oklahoma!

[Cakerchick]

hello all! I’m so glad to have found this community. I’m new to chickens but I’ve raised birds before (parrots, cockatiels, parakeets). We’ve recently moved to “the country” and are loving it! I currently have 8 chicks (3 barred Plymouth Rock, 3 Rhode Island Red and 2 golden comets) which I bought from backyardchickens.com. All are doing well and growing like weeds. I’m a Sugar Artist, water color painter, wife, momma and nana when I’m not obsessing over chicks. I look forward to getting to know y’all.

would love to see what you have done.

I’m excited about my chicks! I’ve wanted them for a long time and I’m a bit obsessed with them. I look forward to learning bunches from everyone here
