G’Day from down under 8 Chicks 1967 Welcome!

I hope you enjoy being a BYC member. There are lots of friendly and very helpful folks here so not only is it overflowing with useful information it is also a great place to make friends and have some fun.

You might want to also Find Your State Thread and pop in and say hello.

Personally, I have found the Topic of the Week articles a great resource and a one stop shop for questions which may have already been discussed within the BYC membership group.

If you would like to share pictures and stories of your flock, you have come to the right place. BYC’ers never tire of these and do not back away slowly or commence eye rolling when the photo album or home videos come out

My wife and I decided to take a couple chicks from our neighbors as their little girls had gotten them for Easter and the new kinda wore off. Well 2 years later and two coops later we have 9 girls. 1 Buff and Bared Rock, 1 Easter egger, 1 Dominicker, 3 Lavender Ameraucana pullets and two Blue Asian pullets. We have learned much in a short time but the more we learn the more we understand we don't know. Our chickens are pets and a hobby. We will need help as we go to become better keepers but, you got to start somewhere right?

Hi, I'm a newbie also, but I think we're at the right place. I've already received some good tips from the forums. Wish you all the best!
