Hello all, we’re software developers in Northeast Ohio, fostering cats (okay, we’ve adopted six of them over the years) , fixing up a long-neglected 1980 house in the town where I grew up, and - raising our first mini-flock of 4 RIRs since the town officially legalized chickens last summer! Yay! We can only have a few, and no roosters, so fingers crossed we still have 4 by fall. They’re 6 weeks old tomorrow and no obvious male candidates yet.
I did a bunch of research before we ordered the chicks, some of which involved BYC threads, so I figured I’d officially join up to prepare for when I inevitably need to ask for advice. My husband cared for relatives’ adult chickens as a teenager, but we’re newbies to the chick world. Happy to meet everyone!
