New to raising chickens

[backyard batman]

Last night I was blessed by my friend, gifting me with his 3 backyard chickens. It's something I've fantasized about for years. Today I'm reading through CC&R's in order to figure out just how challenging this may or may not be.

Hi there,

and welcome to BYC!

Chickens can be a lot of fun and quite rewarding. And over time, they will have you trained up well!

But to get you started, you might check out the learning center here of BYC for some tips and pointers about chickens....

And of course if you have other questions, there are many other topics in the forums that you can post a question in. You can also search the archives here for answers to many questions.

Great to have you aboard and enjoy BYC!
