Just introducing myself!

Hi! Me and my husband are slowly starting to homestead and we have our first chickens! They are 5 weeks old and doing great! We have some basic knowledge about caring for them but are still very new to sexing them and what different breeds look like. We live in the country on 7 acres. No children but 2 fur babies! Uhm...not sure what else to say I've already used this forum soooo many times to help sex and find the breed of some of our chickens!! We lost 2 chicks due to unknown illness before I found this resource. Everyone has been so helpful, so thank you!!

Thank you! I think they just failed to thrive unfortunately.
