Hello seamus99. Welcome to BYC! There is tons of info here and very good people to help you on your journey as a new chicken owner.

If you want to get the most out of BYC, I suggest you do the following:

• For general education, spend some time browsing the Articles link above and possibly the Learning Center. You will find excellent information for both newbies and long-time chicken owners there.
  
• When you have specific questions, most of the time a quick search will come up with the answers.
• If you don't find anything useful that way, post your question in an appropriate sub-forum. People here are very helpful and will answer your question even it has been asked 100 times before.

Good luck with your new birds and enjoy your time here.

Hi, thanks for joining us! I've raised RIR's in the past and think they're wonderful birds...lots of personality and good egg layers. Hope you enjoy them!
