Hi just wanted to introduce myself. I've been stalking backyard chicken for a couple months now. Decided to join after getting six baby chicks last weekend: blue laced red Wyandotte, lemon cuckoo Orpington, Easter Egger, white Silkie , Tolbunt Polish and bantam Cochin. Thank you backyard chicken for helping me make an educated decision on my backyard flock.

Thank you. I love them so much! It was so hard to limit my selection to six. There are so many other breeds and colors I want.

We are all enablers here, no one will raise an eyebrow if you get another 6-12- 18 etc. Just be sure to make your coop(s) larger than you think you will need. Build it and they will come - trust me.
