I am new to chickens. Just bought a small hobby farm and loving life in the countryside. I am converting a horse stall into a coop and have my first bird, an EE cockerel we named Bob. We also have 5 labs and 2 cats. We plan on starting out with a half dozen or so hens.. Looking forward to learning everything "chicken" here!

Hello Boynedoc. Welcome to BYC! There is tons of info here and very good people to help you on your journey as a new chicken owner.

I don't know how much reading/research you've already done, but if you want to get the most out of BYC, I suggest you do the following:

Spend some time in the Learning Center
When you have specific questions, most of the time a quick search will come up with the answers.
If you don't find anything useful that way, post your question in an appropriate sub-forum. People here are very helpful and will answer your question even it has been asked 100 times before.

Enjoy your time here.
