New chicken parent here.

[AJohle]

Hello. I’m new to all this and I’m a new chicken mom as well. We just got our first 6 little chics. We got them at 2 days old and they will currently be 4 weeks as of this week. It’s been amazing watching them grow into the little hens they are today (or Roos as I’ve been doing some research and I think I have a couple of young handsome men). I’m excited about this journey of raising chics. In the future I want more. I’m going to post a pic of my little children from today. We built them a temporary run until we get their coop built and this is what they go into when we home from work.

Hello and welcome to BYC!

Congrats on your new babies! If you have any questions about them along the way, be sure to ask. Make yourself at home here, we saved you a spot on the roost bar!
