"Baba Yaga", love the name! The fairy tale illustrations creeped me out as a little kid! Never forgot them... So glad you've joined BYC!

You're right; It would be a shame for you not to join!! You clearly adore that lovely flock, and a "quiet, rural life."

Welcome to BYC, where folks try their best to offer helpful advice, heartfelt empathy and constructive support whenever we can! It's good to meet you

Thank you, good to meet you too

Hi All, having visited this site numerous times for help with my chickens (I first found it via a random google search and have visited frequently), I've decided to subscribe and introduce myself. I'm Debs from the UK and I have 6 chickens: Phoebe (top of the pecking order), Clara (one step behind), Gretel, Ruthie, Goldie and Brownie (youngest and lowest in pecking order). They are all cross-breed layer chickens, very friendly, inquisitive and generally good fun. My parents kept backyard hens (small flocks of 4-8) on and off for about 15 years; I took over their flock of 6 last year. They are treasured pets and very much part of the family.

Aside from chickens, I spend most of my free time gardening, hiking, reading, cooking for family get-togethers, keeping dad company, and hanging out with the hens. It's a quiet, rural life but it suits me.

And finally: "what made you finally join our awesome community?" - I admire the way everyone shares knowledge and it seems so friendly, open and unpretentious, seems like a shame not to join in .

Welcome! I'm new too! Everyone is so helpful and friendly. I'm enjoying it so much.
