New to BYC

[Willow Collum]

Hello, I am new to BYC. I found you on my research of chickens. We will moving to Ohio by Spring to live with my sweet daughter, Kathy. She used her VA benefits to buy a home with some land so we can go live with her. I wanted to find out all I could about the breeds in the north and how to build a coop. You guys know, all the things you already know. Just me and my husband and two Boston Terriers and a Lilac Siamese Cat named Tiggy. I just can’t wait. Willow

Hi Willow, nice to meet you. I'm guessing you like your cat Tiggy better than the dogs because you didn't mention their names. Just kidding . Bostons are really neat dogs , I've seen several in the neighborhood. Used to be a predominance of black & tan, long haired mini doxies.
