New Oklahoma chicken mama

I just ordered my 6 chicks (2 lavender orphingtons, 2 Easter eggers, 2 barred rocks) and am counting down the days. We've been getting the coop and run ready. Any advice is welcome. Thanks

Welcome to BYC and the chicken world in general. Best advice I can give is use this site to your advantage their is alot of good info on here. Also just enjoy keeping chickens they have a lot of personality if you take the time to watch.

Where can I get day old silkies locally? Does any one have any leads on this?

My feedstore in Dibble Ok is taking orders. If that is close to you you might call them
