New to BYC

[jsmith2952]

Hi all,

I'm new to all this chicken stuff and am about to embark on a pretty exciting journey, complete with two hens, one 2 year old little girl, a very nosy dog, and a particularly handy husband (who will be doing most of the grunt building work). I've read so much about chicken care that I feel like my brain will explode and I am still feeling totally overwhelmed (even with the good fortune of having a real-life chicken farmer living across the street who listens to my endless questions!)

I'm looking forward to being a part of this community to learn as much as I can in hopes of being the best backyard farmer I can! Any direction, tips, pointers, etc would be most welcomed and I will make sure to post the coop photos and its new inhabitants!

Welcome

feel free to ask all sorts of questions, there are a lot of knowledgeable people here. one thing to keep in mind, chickens are actually really easy to keep, so don't let the amazing amount of information out there overwhelm you too much

plenty of time for perfecting your methods as you go.

good luck!
