Just wanted to say hi and introduce myself to the community. I have been learning a lot from this forum over the past few weeks since my wife and I decided that we want to start raising some chickens this spring. We live on two acres in a pretty quiet community in SW OH. Our zoning allows us to raise poulty and livestock but we're going stick with chickens for now. We're interested in both layers and broilers and we're hoping to get our first batch of chicks in month or so. Hopefully by the time the chicks will be ready to move to the coop I'll have it finished and all of the snow and cold weather will be done. Neither of us have ever raised chickens before and I've learned that there is a bit more to it than I originally thought. Any suggestions for a first timer looking for both layers and meat birds would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Looking forward to getting to know you guys!
