New to the chicken world

[Carecare8]

Hi! I started dated a man with a small hobby farm a couple years ago and have had so much fun with the animals and birds on the farm. I'm joining this group because every time I google a question about the birds, I always find super helpful info from this forum. My boyfriend has 6 laying hens in one coup with an enclosed run, several (maybe around 12) free range barnyard mix chickens and 5 guinea hens. My boyfriend does some hatching for the neighbours and the guineas so I often find myself googling questions which has brought me here.

Hiya, and welcome to BYC!

That's such a neat story how you're getting into poultry too! We have a Learning Center if you haven't found that yet. It's full of helpful articles about raising chicks and chickens, and other poultry too!

We're glad you're here!
