Hello everyone,

I'm new to BYC and new to poultry! No flock yet. I recently purchased my first house in May. With so much going on this year with the new house I haven't done much in the way or gardening or self-sufficient hobbies like this, but looking into getting ready for next year and maybe, just Maybe, getting some chickens! I'll be creeping on all the noobie forums and topics, but probably not posting a lot.

I'm learning about the restrictions for my city and debating if chickens are a viable option for me. Things like "no roosters" and a limit of 6 hens have me up in the air on it. I'm very interested novel egg colors such as that of Olive Eggers and Welsummer.

See you all in the threads!

Salve (Latin for Hello)! Welsummers lay nice dark brown eggs…they definitely make a nice addition to your egg basket!

Welcome welcome welcome 2 BYC. ..we have all kinds of forums to help....I am not a huge fan of roosters either, but we all need them to expand our flocks. I recommend getting a small flock and ask away.......

6 Welsummers would give you I think on average 4 nice dark eggs a day. With good care they should average 240 eggs a year according to one of the better hatcheries.
