New to backyard chickens

[Nrose89]

Hi everyone. My names Nicole I am from the southwest of Western Australia.
Currently have a mixed pen of Pekins, two Sussex cross wyandottes and two blue australorp and a pen with 3 silver grey Dorkings and a SG Dorking rooster.
Just had my first experience worming them all this morning!!

Very nice to meet you Nicole - welcome to Backyard chickens. BYC has a large Aussie community and "Australia, six states and one funny little island." thread to help you keep up with news back home.

Welcome to BYC, Nicole. Glad you decided to join our flock. You have a nice mix of breeds. Australorps are my favorite standard breed. I've raised them for years (along with dozens of other breeds), and they are extremely hardy, calm and gentle (our children and granddaughter made lap pets of them), and excellent layers of large, brown eggs. If you haven't done so already, definitely check out our Learning Center at https://www.backyardchickens.com/atype/1/Learning_Center. There is loads of useful information there. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have. We are here to help in any way we can. Cheers.
