Hi Guys,

I'm Kaligh! I just moved to AZ last year, and Just bought my first house over the summer and have been fixing it up, and now I want to get an old shed in the back of the property spruced up to become a chicken coop!

(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?

Im super new and have only read about it and helped a friend raise her chicks

(2) How many chickens do you have right now?

0!! but hoping to change that soon

(3) What breeds do you have?

N/A

(4) How did you find out about BackYardChickens.com?

google

(5) What are some of your other hobbies?

All Things animals really, I also love drawing, and hiking when I can, old westerns, natural care products, crafting.

(6) Tell us about your family, your other pets, your occupation, or anything else you'd like to share.


I currently have 3 dogs, 1 cat, 3 Chinchillas, 3 of my own Sugar Gliders, and I'm fostering 2 other Sugar gliders for an exotic pet rescue I'm a board member for. I just bought my own home and I live by myself. and I have an old shed I want to fix up and turn into a chicken coop .
 
Hello Kaligh. Welcome to BYC! There is tons of info here and very good people to help you on your journey as a new chicken owner. :)

If you want to get the most out of BYC, I suggest you do the following:
  • For general education, spend some time browsing the Articles link above and possibly the Learning Center. You will find excellent information for both newbies and long-time chicken owners there.
  • When you have specific questions, most of the time a quick search will come up with the answers.
  • If you don't find anything useful that way, post your question in an appropriate sub-forum. People here are very helpful and will answer your question even it has been asked 100 times before.
Enjoy your time here.

When you get your chickens, you might be interested in downloading this free e-book My First Year With Chickens

I hope you enjoy being a BYC member. There are lots of friendly and very helpful folks here so not only is it overflowing with useful information it is also a great place to make friends and have some fun.

Personally, I have found the Topic of the Week articles a great resource and a one stop shop for questions which may have already been discussed within the BYC membership group.

If you would like to share pictures and stories of your flock when they arrive, you have come to the right place. BYC’ers never tire of these and do not back away slowly or commence eye rolling when the photo album or home videos come out ;)
