New and very excited to get into poultry!

[mmbrickner]

Hi all, My grandma kept chickens and I have wanted to for so long and finally got our 5 baby chicks on monday. Have been reading, but still feel like I know so little! Interested in getting into ducks/geese in future. Outside of our flock, we are very into gardening, which i've been doing my whole life and I am an art teacher as well and just generally enjoy creating!
