How old is backyardchickens.com?

Just curious. How old is this site?

Looks like 19 years! @Nifty-Chicken joined in 2006.

Ah! So the public aspect of Facebook and BYC are the same age!

Which forum would you rather get reliable poultry information from?

I just realized this was posted in @TudyBOT corner, I may have answered out of turn!

I don’t do Facebook and would personally not rely on info there or other forums.

Definetly backyard chickens! I agree with tlcmurphy on this.

The community tools and moderation are way better here.

Good point, I'll move this to a section that is a better fit.

Yes. As public forums go, BYC is disciplined yet welcoming. I feel the information presented here is head and shoulders above other sites. And we all seem able to behave as civilized members of the human race.

I'm really, really proud of us.

By the way, A.I.Tudy Bot never chimed in. Is she dead? If so, what a shame. (Not really.)

Rob, I didn’t realize you were not the original owner. Thanks for sharing that look back!
So, the official answer is BYC is 26 years old

Maybe she got a virus? AI?
