Welcome!

What breeds are you interested in? I'm currently trying out Black Australorps for the first time. And let me just say:

Welcome to BYC!

Are you going to the feed store to get your new chicks? If you need any tips or hints on raising your new brood, stop by our learning center for lots of good reads on all the aspects of keeping poultry...

Hello and Welcome To BYC! If you are looking for chicks, this time of year most feed/farm stores like TSC will carry them if you happen to have one in the area. You might also try your state thread to see where people near you are getting theirs https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/270925/find-your-states-thread
For when you get them, great place to check out is the BYC Learning Center, lots of good chicken keeping articles. Some nice one about the first few weeks in the Raising Chicks section https://www.backyardchickens.com/atype/1/Learning_Center

The learning center as well as the forum should answer your questions! Glad to have you here! See you around the forum.
