New to BYC

[NycToPaGuy]

I'm really excited to have met you all! I'm a newly transplanted to Pennsylvania from New York City-after a job loss in the fashion world-my life turned upside down and I found myself in Western Pa. I'm happy to be here and grateful to have the opportunity to learn about chickens form you. Looking to have about 5-6 good layers and I have plenty of land for a beautiful coop. I have so many questions I don't know where to start....

The best place to start is the Learning Center, it will answer questions you didn't even know you had:

Always feel free to ask questions, there are a lot of helpful members here. You might also like to say hello to other members in PA, they may be a good source for things like poultry shows, breeders, how to deal with your weather, etc.
