New to chickens

[Mslssa]

Hi, I became the proud mama to four 1 1/2 year old layers this weekend. Haven't had chickens since I was a kid, half a century ago and don't remember a bloody thing, so I have lots of questions. I live about 50 miles north of anchorage alaska.

I hope you enjoy being a BYC member. There are lots of friendly and very helpful folks here so not only is it overflowing with useful information it is also a great place to make friends and have some fun.

BYC has Topic of the Week discussions which I have found to be a great resource, informative and sometimes entertaining; so definitely worth checking out. They are also great refreshers of chicken husbandry.
