New in Raising Chickens (and a rooster)

[WeHave12HensNow]

Hi,

My name is Debbie. We recently adopted 12 hens and a rooster. This is a totally new experience for my husband and I. I will have many questions I'm sure.

Thanking you in advance for answering the questions I will be asking.

Yes welcome to BYC chickens r great and really affectionate and they have so much character I am sure u will thoroughly enjoy keeping hens. Their only downside is that they can catch an awful lot of illnesses but don't worry.
