New chick mom!

[summerchick82]

Hi everyone! My name's Summer and I'm in Alberta, Canada

My chicks arrived today!! It's the first time my husband and I have owned chickens so we are really excited! We have 3 Barred Plymoth Rocks, 3 Columbian Rocks, and 3 white Leghorns! Plus, the hatchery threw in an extra by mistake and the feed store let us have it for free

It will be a surprise if it's a Columbian or Leghorn lol!

Pretty exciting all right! You will love it. This is the place to find all of the answers to your questions. Go to your state thread and see who is there, you may know someone, if not, you will get to know them, and how close you are, and, you will be surprised at how many folks have chickens in your state.
