Just wanted to say hello to all my fellow chicken raisers. We have 4 chickens now and are getting ready to order our first baby chicks ever. Very excited and I'm sure I'll be relying on everyone for advice.

Welcome!

New babies .. exciting!

redsoxs has given you some good starting points.

I hope you enjoy BYC. There are lots of friendly and very helpful folks here so not only is it overflowing with useful information it is also a great place to make friends and have some fun. Unlike non chicken loving friends, family and colleagues, BYC’ers never tire of stories or pictures that feature our feathered and non feathered friends

In addition to the other links you've been given, don't forget to read up on integration so you'll have an easier time mixing the new birds in with your existing flock.

Thanks for joining us!
