Hi, I'm new to this community! 😊

[SamsonsCoop]

Hey guys! My name's Brittney. I'm a new chicken owner. I grew up in the city. Last year I met the love of my life, Jeremiah who lives in farm town grew up in Bay City MI and has been around chickens his entire life. His grandpa had a farm. I trusted his opinions with what breed to get our family and now I'm that crazy lady lol I never thought I would ever bond with these birds like I have. They are freaking hilarious. I love how smart and loyal they are as pets. We ended up getting our flock from tractor supply in inlay city, mi. We have 4 children that currently live with us, so we allowed them to pick a chick each. I'll post pictures below. 3 of them are bantams. (I think) and the orange one is the best egg layer. I forgot her breed. They are friendly and even our pitbull, Duke doesn't mind them being a new addition. As soon as we moved the chicks to their coop outside Jeremiah and I decided to buy 2 more! Both bantams I just can't seem to figure out my chicks breed! My daughter chose a golden seabright, she has blue legs. She's beautiful. Her name is DIXIE. Our rooster is awesome. With furry feet. He's not too aggressive and the smallest out of the flock. Excited to learn more being with a community that will help with questions.

You have a golden laced Wyandotte (black with golden laced) (not the tiny bantam sebright although it looks similar) and a golden comet (orange with splashes of white)

Hello! Welcome to BYC!! Thank you for sharing pictures! Chicken fever is easy to get

Welcome to a great community for all things poultry. Lovely looking flock. Beware of how addictive chickens, ducks, etc. are. Oh - just a few more.
I hope you make sure your coop and run are predator proof. Tough life lesson is one of them is taken by a predator.

Welcome to our flock, Brittney! Glad you decided to join us! Your chickens are very pretty, and yes, they are so much fun! I only have my chickens a year now and I am still learning. You have come to the right place! I have learned so much here.
