Welcome to Backyard Chickens!
They are adorable.
It can be overwhelming when you look at all of the products offered in stores.
Really just need a safe brooder with clean waterer, chick food, a heat source on one side only. Also something for them to walk on like shavings. Check for pasty butt at least once a day.

Here at BYC, the Learning Center is a great place to start:
