Hi, my name's Kristen

[kristen84]

I live in Marysville, wa
I'm active duty military
I have 4 chickens, 2 buff orpingtons, an Amerecauna, and a Rhode island red. They're 3 weeks old.
I've never had chickens before
I am also getting quail next month
I have a 5 month old male husky
I heard of back yard chickens through Google, for asking so many questions, and a friend who gave me some supplies before she transfers to cali.

G'Day from down under Kristen.. Welcome!

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.

BYC has Topic of the Week discussions which I have found to be a great resource, informative and sometimes entertaining; so definitely worth checking out.

If you would like to share Pictures and Stories of your flock and/or other critters, 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

Including your general location on your profile will assist others. Location, climate, season etc can be important factors when members are responding to any questions you may have and vice versa.

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