I don't know if this is the correct place to post this but I am sure that it can be redirected if it isn't.
I would like to take a moment to thank those who created this wonderful Forum and those who have answered all of my questions or have given me solutions to my problems with our flock. I have been here countless times in the year since we first got our chicks. I have asked all kinds of questions and have gotten only kindness and more information than I thought was even out there regarding the subjects I posted about. Not once have I ever been ridiculed, bullied or made to seem ignorant.
I am here saying these things because recently I have joined another Forum, about horses. I have had horses since my teenage years. I have a friend that has been having difficulty with one of her horses and I thought that since she is so busy, that I would try to find a forum and see if I could find some information for her. Well, let me tell you something....It definately isn't like the Back Yard Chicken forum! Some people on that forum are rude, bullies, and ridicule others that may not be as informed, or that may just have a different opinion about the subject. I don't understand why people join a forum, if they aren't there to help one another, to share information, or lend support. It made me angry, and sad to see how some posters treated others.
So again, I thank you. Thank you for providing such a wonderful place to share, inquire, aid, and sometimes just commiserate. I would be lost without this place. And I've grown fond of some of the people already.
Keep up the great work!
