NEW and learning

[ekjones710]

Hi friends,
I'm new and hoping to get some new chicks soon. I've got two kiddos who are going to love to help me care for them.
Mostly, I'm trying to verify that I can indeed have four (female) chickens in my backyard within our neighborhood and HOA. I have not heard from the HOA yet so if any of you are in Castle Rock, CO founders village neighborhood any info is greatly appreciated! I have checked city ordinances and am allowed (4) however the HOA might be a different matter. Alrighty, thanks guys!

G'Day from down under ekjones.... Welcome!

I too hope that you get the nod on keeping chickens!

I also 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.

BYC has Topic of the Week discussions which I have found to be a great resource, informative and sometimes entertaining; so definitely worth checking out. These two may be of particular interest:
Topic of the Week - Getting Started, Keeping Chickens
Topic of the Week - Keeping the Flock Safe from Predators

You might want to also Find Your State Thread and pop in and say hello.
