Hi & welcome to the BYC family!
What kind of chickens are you looking into getting? Or are you still doing research?

Welcome, you’ve come to the right place!
If you are limited to hens only, buy sexed or sex linked pullets. Another option is quail. They are kept penned, but they are quiet despite the sex, and lay eggs a lot sooner. The eggs are fun pattered too.

It's great to learn as much as you can before just jumping in and getting chickens.

Welcome to the BYC forums

You came to a great place to get info on chickens. I would also recommend checking out some books on raising chickens from the library and checking out the many, many YouTube videos on chickens. Here's a video to get you going....
