Greetings from Kansas, redneck farmer, and !  Great to have you here!  As a new chicken owner I'd advise spending some time in the Learning Center here:

https://www.backyardchickens.com/a/

That will get you off to a good start as you begin your poultry endeavor.  Best of luck to you and hope you get lots of eggs!

Thanks a lot that had some good tips!

I'm having trouble with there water. The waterer worked but they r dropping food in in and the food is partly dissolved in the water. I'm scooping Out most of it but they keep dropping food

Put the waterer on something, so it's higher. But not too high! That will help keep it clean. These little things can be messy. They are adorable

I another question I have is one of my chicks likes to sleep with her head hanging out side the cage... Could that hurt her neck?
