Hello!

Moving out to 5 acres on Vancouver Island, Canada early Feb 2018. No we Can finally become a bit more self reliant! We are hoping to get some chickens and goats. Have done a lot of research, and looking for any tips and advice!

We have 2 kiddos, 6 & 3. As well as 2 Burmese cats!

Thanks in advance!! :)

Hello VanIsleNewb. Welcome to BYC! There is tons of info here and very good people to help you on your journey as a new chicken owner. :)

If you want to get the most out of BYC, I suggest you do the following:
  • For general education, spend some time browsing the Articles link above and possibly the Learning Center. You will find excellent information for both newbies and long-time chicken owners there.
  • When you have specific questions, most of the time a quick search will come up with the answers.
  • If you don't find anything useful that way, post your question in an appropriate sub-forum. People here are very helpful and will answer your question even if it has been asked 100 times before.
Good on you for researching before bringing chickens home. The will be better off for your efforts.

Enjoy your time here.
 
G’Day from down under VanIsleNewb :frow Welcome & Congratulations!

You might find this article helpful in deciding what breed of chickens to get: Pickin a Chicken

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.

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 when they arrive, 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 ;)
