Introduction

[amarshall929]

Hello all!
Just an introduction of myself. I live in Florida with my son and husband and we recently have acquired 9 chicks. We have never had chickens before but have always wanted to. So excited to start this fun adventure. It's definitely a learning process but loving it so far

Great to have another poultry lover! What kind of chicks do you have?

 

[amarshall929]

I am still trying to figure that out! We got them from Ace on chick day. The employee couldn't give us a definite answer as to what they were

I hope you enjoy being a BYC member. There are lots of friendly and very helpful folks here so not only is it overflowing with useful information it is also a great place to make friends and have some fun.

If you would like to share pictures and stories of your flock, you have come to the right place. BYC’ers never tire of these and do not back away slowly or commence eye rolling when the photo album or home videos come out
