Hi everyone, my name is Kristina. I am new to the chicken world. We will are wanting to add 5 feathery chicks to our family and watch them grow. We are a family if 10. 5 children my self and husband, our golden retriever, springer Sam, and kitty kitty. We are still trying to figure our how to build the coop lol. I have been researching for weeks and I think I have my self thoroughly confused lol so I am glad I found BYC. I'm hoping to get this all figured out soon. As we hope to get our chicks here in the next month. Any and all advice is welcome :-)
 
Hi! Im new too. I have 15 chickies that are Bout 3 weeks old. I'm in love with those little fluffs. There's so much to learn from this site. Check out the coop thread and especially the Learning center. Everyone here is also quite helpful and I've learned most from using the search function and reading the responses of those experienced chicken keepers.

Welcome!
