Hi!

[Carr Chicks]

(1) We just purchased our 1st chickens a few days ago.

(2) We have 9 chicks (possibly 8 hens & 1 rooster). We’ll have 7 adult hens to add to our flock this week.

(3) Jersey Giants & Rhode Island Reds (not sure of the breeds of the ones we’ll be getting this week.

(4) I’m not sure yet as we’ve just started. I love seeing and petting the baby chicks

(5) Homemaking, crocheting, calligraphy, gardening.
(6) We’re a family of 5 with 3 cats. We hope to add more animals to our homestead at some point.

(7) A search on DuckDuckGo for info on chickens is how I found BYC.

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.
