Hello from London, England!
I'm brand new to chick raising and chicken keeping. We were planning on getting some chickens when we move at the end of the month but enquires about some chicks they hatched at my sons nursery and got a call last Thursday to collect them on Friday! Very last minute so I've been worried as haven't had all the right stuff. But a week later they are doing well.
So we just have 2 at the moment, they were a week old so now 2 wks. They are apparently a male and female, wasn't told what breed and so I tried to look it up and the fact they appear to be sex linked seems to point towards red stars which aren't a breed at all apparently. Anyway they are very cute, messy and nosey, and the kids love them! We do too.
I can't wait to see how they grow, how we cope as well (especially with a rooster) as would ideally like to get more if this is successful.
Can't wait to start reading and getting clued up!
