[The Misfits Coop]

Hopefully be a successful Backyard chicken owner,
Wife, boys and I will be raising the chickens we inherited from our Son and Daughter prior to them moving to NC. Never raised anything other than Puppies n kittens. Misfits just fits for the name of the Coop. Not sure of all the breeds we have , But have Brahmas, Red, Astralorps and a few others. More to add later.

You'll do just great. Check out the forums that interest you. Ask questions that you need answers for. BYC is the best place to be for new chickeners as well as old hands. Learn something new here every day. Hope you will enjoy Backyard Chickens as much as we do.

Hello and welcome to BYC! Glad you joined.
Congratulations on the instant flock of misfits! If you really want to know what breeds you have take good full body pictures of them and start a new thread in Breeds and Gender and you'll get lots of replies!
