Welcome to BYC. Do you have a specific reason for wanting chickens? For example do you want layers, or meat birds, or more of a pet or lawn decoration? Is there a particular breed you want? The more we know, the better we can assist you. Do you want young chicks or mature birds?
Have you checked out the Learning Center - it's a great start for a chicken education. There is also a coop section with many styles and sizes, that might interest you. If you would like to know what is happening chicken-wise in your area, you can locate and post on your state thread at "where am I, where are you," in the social forum.
