Obviously I'm new to the thread but I've had chickens since I was 12. My father saw chickens in the front yard of somebody's home and said, "I want to do that some day, own chickens.". Me bein a kid asked, "Why not? Why don't we have anyway.". Which sparked a realization in his mind which was 'yeah, why don't I have chickens and what's keepin me from owning some'. Not knowing what I just did or the responsibility that came with it, he decided to get them a few weeks later with me bein his little helper. I've helped my old man raise more than 50 of them at one time and continued to do so for over a decade. Always loved it even during the winter time where we had to make sure they have water constantly. Now I'm a man like my father and want some chickens of my own. My girl didn't believe me when I said I wanted to build a coop and get some. Now I'm in the middle of the process and she's stunned yet supportive. I joined this sight after knowing about it for more than half my life and want to share my experience of building a coop and raising my own flock. I hope you enjoy and even maybe give me some good advice along the way.

Hello and welcome to BYC! :frow

Very nice introduction! Once chickens get into your blood, there's no getting them out. :D

Good luck with the coop build and all your projects. If you have any questions about anything along the way, be sure to ask. Welcome aboard!
 
Welcome to the coop! I use the Forums and Articles tabs at the top of the page to do research. You can get lost for hours. It's nice to know you are minutes away from getting help with questions and emergencies! I always check in the "What's New" section as well at the top of this page. This way I can read how I may have a similar question or help give some advice.
