Newbie Thread, Hi from Memphis!!

[justus85]

Hey everybody,

I've been reading off this sight for some time, especially for purposes of becoming a good chicken handler. I've had a flock for 8 months or so now. My girls are all productive and healthy layers. 2 grown hens from the original batch (lost one to predators unfortunately), and have 2 news chicks being raised in the brooder and slowly integrated to the flock via the 'see and no touch' method I learned from one of the threads here.

I just now got around to making a forum account. I live in Memphis, TN, the Bluff City; home of the Memphis Grizzlies, Graceland, and the world's best BBQ. I look forward to getting to know the community and learn more as questions arise.

Hi

Glad you could join us here! Many of us were lurkers before joining, me included! Good luck with getting your 2 new ones me see in. I too always use the see but don't touch and have great results.
The learning centre has great articles that will really help you ~ https://www.backyardchickens.com/atype/1/Learning_Center

Good luck and enjoy BYC
