Hi everyone,
My name is Nikki and I got my first 4 hens last Sunday. They are settling in nicely but still a bit unsure of me!
I own a horse and dog and have always been interested in having chickens .
I have named them and don't laugh .. Dolly, Holly, Molly and Polly and I do know which is which.
My friend has had chickens so she is telling me things I need to know but it is good to hear from others and any advice I might need.
 
Hi Nikki and welcome to BYC - thanks for joining us.

Here’s a link to the Articles section - https://www.backyardchickens.com/articles/ There you’ll find lots of information on almost every aspect of keeping chickens - from coop building ideas, to incubating eggs.

There’s a link on the page above to the Learning Centre - it’s a great resource. If you have a specific topic in mind, just type it in the search box - there's a wealth of information on past and present threads.

Each week, various topics are discussed, which can also be a great resource - https://www.backyardchickens.com/a/topic-of-the-week-thread-archive

You may wish to consider joining the UK thread as it will put you in touch with other BYC members in your area -
