Hi all!
My name is Morgan Pope and I’m from Northeast Alabama. Roll Tide! I felt like that needed to be said for some odd reason..LOL! Anyways, I just started my venture with chickens and purchased 2 Easter Egger chicks at our local trade day a few weeks ago. They are now 5 weeks old. I don’t know what I have yet as far as gender but I’m praying for pullets only as I want fresh eggs to share with family and friends and obviously to have them as pets. I posted a thread under sexing them in hopes that when I post their updated pictures later on today that I’ll have some insight. My boyfriend is building me a coop as soon as we get some good weather. It’s been raining/storming crazy here in Alabama. We have been doing a lot research on coop necessities and coop safety. I’m really excited to be joining this community as I have wanted to be a “chicken mama” for quite sometime now. I’m so blessed to finally be able to live out my dream.

Congratulations on your new adventure and welcome aboard! You'll find tons of information here.
