Love these babies! New to chickens.

[kskyles]

I am a stay at home wife and mommy. My husband is in the ministry and we have a three year old little boy bundle of wonder. On a recent trip to Tractor Supply for fencing materials, we ended up coming home with 12 new babies! 4 bantams, 4 straight run and 4 pullets. They were two weeks old when we bought them and boy what an adventure they have been so far. I look forward to being a member of this group! I've never raised anything. So far I have managed to keep the three of us alive, though

I have so much to learn and am thankful I found this group! So where do I post if I want to learn a little more about each of my little precious loves?

Welcome to BYC! It is hard to tell usually until chicks feather out what breeds they are...so at about 4 weeks you can post pictures on this thread: https://www.backyardchickens.com/f/15/what-breed-or-gender-is-this good luck to you

Thank you! I forgot to mention how long we've had them. They are five weeks now. So I will use that link to post their pictures! Thanks again!!
