Just wanted to say hello. My name is Barb, I'm married with 4 children, live in Kansas City, MO and looking forward to getting to meet all you nice folks and getting my very first chicks in a few weeks. Because we do live in the city, plan on keeping my flock to just 4 girls, no roosters, though I wish to eventually wake or sleep (depending on the rooster) to some beautiful crowing. 
Welcome, it's so nice to meet you! I'm from NC myself and this year started raising chickens and well...
chicken math took over and the addiction began! 
I hope you enjoy it as much as I do here...I have met many wonderful friends and learned SOOOO much from many of the pros. Jump right on in, you will feel right at home in no time!
