Hi!

I live in the suburbs, but luckily my town allows up to 4 chickens. I haven't purchased any yet, but I'm hoping to do so in the spring.

In the meantime, I'll be doing a lot of research, preparing my future chickens' living area, and spending a lot of time learning on this site!

So glad a resource like this is available for free and can't wait to fully explore the site

Hello there and welcome to BYC!

Doing research beforehand will always pay off. Have you stopped by our Learning Center yet? Lots of great reads on all the aspects of keeping poultry... https://www.backyardchickens.com/articles/

And feel free to ask as many questions as you need out in the forums. Welcome to our community!

That's great you can have a flock in the city! Are you going to start with chicks or point of lay hens? Make yourself at home here and feel free to ask questions!

Thank you both so much for the warm welcome!

TwoCrows, the Learning Center looks like a treasure trove of info, can't wait to dive in!

N F C, yes we're quite fortunate that our town is chicken friendly! I'm looking to start with chicks

It's great you are doing things in the right order. Research and prepare first, THEN get chickens.
