New chicken momma

[Stephaniejoy]

Hello, I am new to raising chickens. I currently have 22 chicks. 18 ordered from Cackle Hatchery and 4 I couldn't resist (baby chicks are too cute and I just couldn't wait for my delivery! Chicken math is hard and a real thing! Lol) at tractor supply. I am surprised by how friendly and funny they are. Currently, they are in our living room and I'm not looking forward to moving them out. Unfortunately, my husband is opposed to a house full of chickens! What a weirdo - chickens for sure belong in the house! Lol I love this site. Thank you all so much for the info you share!

Hello and welcome to BYC! Glad you joined.
Give them another week or two. You won't want them in the house anymore!

Welcome to the wonderful world of chicken keeping. Give it a week and you'll be moving the little dust makers out of your house. Good luck with your flock. I hope you have a coop ready soon.

Hi! Welcome! All of my baby chicks are pullets and living outside in coops! But also it's a big relief. It's nice to watch them becoming increasingly competent.
