    Hi everyone! Just wanted to introduce myself! We just started our own coop and I couldn't be more excited. I had three chickens for a little while growing up and decided we needed them again. We're a small coop having 9 poulets (Buff, ISO browns, americauna), sadly we lost one while still a chick :( poor thing. She tried, but the rest seem to be doing great!

    I'm brimming with questions and can't wait to scan the existing articles and talk with other members!

    G’Day from down under Lokismuse [​IMG] Welcome!

    I am so sorry you lost one of your little ones [​IMG]

    As you have already received links to some good starting points, I will just wish you all the best.

    I hope you enjoy being a BYC member. There are lots of friendly and very helpful folks here so not only is it overflowing with useful information it is also a great place to make friends and have some fun.

    If you would like to share pictures and stories of your flock, you have come to the right place. BYC’ers never tire of these and do not back away slowly or commence eye rolling when the photo album or home videos come out [​IMG]
