Greetings and welcome to BYC Sandra! So glad you joined us. Congrats on your new (old) farm and the new chicks. Sorry there have been some issues... It's sad, but that does happen... There's a wealth of info, knowledge and experience shared in the multitude of threads. Browse around and see what interesting stuff you can find. By all means post away when the desire strikes you, especially if you have questions (provide as much detail/info as possible and pictures truly help)... With all the great folks here, generally someone will respond in no time at all. Please make yourself at home!

Oh, if you haven't done so already, PLEASE put at least your general location in your profile. It could be very important if/when you ask for or offer help or advice. You know, climate issues and such. Old folks like me will never remember from this thread. To add it, mouse hover over Account top right and a drop down will appear. Click on Personal Details and scan down. You'll see the spot for Location. Then go to the bottom and save changes. Thanks! Hope you enjoy the site!

I'm a little north of Charlotte, but close enough to have it as my general location. This helps others give you better advice, knowing what kind of weather you get. It's easy to add under your profile.

Hi all,

My name is Sandra. I live in North Carolina, I'm a fourth grade teacher, an animal lover and a blossoming chicken enthusiast. I've bought a 100 year farm house that I'm remodeling and my plan is to fill the farm up with critters of a sort. I share the farm with my year old German Shepherd, my 3 cats, 2 ducks, and a batch of new baby chicks. In the past I've mostly had Rhode Island Red and Barred Rocks, but this time I got a mix. I have a Silver Laced Wyndotte, Golden Laced Wyndotte, Cukoo Maran, Barred Rock, Rhode Island Red, and Black Austolorp. The chicks are two weeks old and growing like weeds. I'm in the process of building my own coop which is turning out to be a super fun project.

I've been a guest reader on this site for years, but decided to join the because I was having trouble with my chicks dying and wanted advice. They had symptoms if coccidious, but there was also a very weird feet issue going on with one of the chicks. I posted that thread about that in the illness/disease forum with pictures.

I'm glad to be here and look forward to making friends that also love chickens.
