Hello I am a new member to this website, and new to raising chickens. I finally gave in to my daughter's begging and we now have 12 that we got when they were only a couple days old. Our girls (hopefully) are now 8 and 9 weeks old and just moved into their new chicken coop, and are loving it.

Names and Breeds

I had no idea chickens would be so sweet, and entertaining, or addicting.
