Hiya!

[Cherry Chickens]

Greetings from California! I've recently purchased 7 silkies and they should be here tomorrow! First time ever owning chickens, so I figured it would be good to have a place with knowledgeable people to help me out . Thanks a bunch to those who read this and take pity on a newbie!
