New member incoming!

Hi everyone,
Our family had chickens 16 years ago before moving to a condo. Now we have 4.5 acres in the South and about a month and half ago we bought 16 chicks (5 Barred Rocks, 7 Buff Orpingtons, 3 Red Rangers and one mystery chick). Unfortunately the mystery chick died a couple weeks after we got her. We've also lost 2 of the Rangers and one Buff.
We found out about BYC by looking for health questions we had and it seems like you know your chicks.
On our land we have a good sized veggie patch and we're working on building some tiny houses.
Look forward to learning from you guys!

Hi @Finn Ice and welcome to Back Yard Chickens. Always glad to have new members join the flock.

Sounds as though you got off to a rocky start with your flock before you got your feet under you and took off running. Good job!

We always love to see pictures of member's flocks here....hint hint...
