So I finally created a BYC account. I've been on here researching for my first group of chicks and we just picked them up yesterday. I have 2 Orpingtons, 2 Welsummers and 2 Gold laced Wyandottes - all pullets. I'm super excited!!
I have two young boys that are 4 & 2 and they are also super excited. We haven't owned any animals until now so my 4 year old keeps wanting to show them his Angry Birds show and his new Superman shoes, lol I have a feeling these little ladies will be spoiled ;-) I have to say though I'm ready for the weather to stay warm. We live in Chesapeake, VA and it was beautiful a couple days ago in the 70's and then yesterday it started hailing! Crazy weather! I read that we can let them run around outside with supervision around 2 weeks of age when the weather is nicer, is that right? I look forward to chatting about chickens with you!
and Welcome To BYC! Good luck with your new chicks, sounds like you will have a pretty little flock! X2 the chicks will enjoy being outside when the weather is nice.
