Hi Everyone
My name is Eliz and I am an absolute first time new to chicken's chicken mom.
After declaring our interest in getting chickens we were given eggs by a friend that breeds chickens for pretty eggs.
10 of them hatched on Friday (Chaos in the incubator).
I think we have several Moran's and possibly a couple of Americana x Moran.
The little chaos agents are running around in their brooder as I type.
I am originally from England (Hence the username), moved to the US 17 years ago as I just love this country and became a full citizen a couple of years ago.
Recently moved to Texas and now have the room for chickens.
Oh, fun fact, along with a host of other foods I've been intolerant to eggs for almost 20 years.
However - I've finally found a doctor that can fix that and am so excited to be eating everything eggy again that I am keen to grow my own.
So hello everyone, I am genuinely excited to be here.
Ah and here are the babies, I am no expert but I think number 2 and number 5 might be roosters (the photo files are numbered), we shall see!

Welcome to the coop! I use the Forums and Articles tabs at the top of the page to do research. You can get lost for hours. It's nice to know you are minutes away from getting help with questions and emergencies! I always check in the "What's New" section as well at the top of this page. This way I can read how I may have a similar question or help give some advice.
