Hello friends!

I am Cathy Norrbom and excited to be joining your group! We bought a feed and seed store called Tobin's Feed and Seed around 1 year ago and suddenly we are needing to learn as much as possible about farm animals, dogs, cats and birds.

A large portion of our business includes chickens so here I am to learn! We are going to conduct "chicken chat" forums and the first one is June 8th! If you are reading this and can recommend some articles to use at our forums, I would greatly appreciate it.

The Philadelphia suburbs are now realizing that they can have chicken coops, so interest is high.

Thank you for have this wonderful site! Maybe you can stop by our fb page and like us

Welcome to BYC!

Please make yourself at home and we are here to help. Sounds like you have a wonderful project going! I'll check out your forums coming up.

Be sure to check out our Learning Center. Also, there are lots of different articles and areas on here based on different chicken things where you can start threads. It sure is amazing that chickens are allowed so many places now!

Again, glad you have joined us!

Thank you Sarah! Sorry to say that I also do not understand how threads work But I noticed your invite to PM you. How do I do that? I am also on FB if you are - that I understand!

I will start with the learning center. I am also a teacher, this is going to turn out to be a great experience!

"Talk" to you soon.

Cathy, be sure to stop by the PA thread, it's very active and there are probably people there that would like to know about your store.

Welcome to BYC!

Wow, a seed and feed store! How egg-citing! To follow a link that has been provided as Mountain Peeps has done, just click on the blue link and it will take you to where they suggested you go. To send a PM to someone, mouse over their Profile Name...such as Tobinschickench, and a window will drop down. 3rd line down it says, Send PM. You can then send someone a message.

Definitely stop by our learning center. Lots of good articles on all the aspects of keeping poultry.

Good luck with the feed store and all it entails, and welcome to our flock!
