Nice to meet everyone

I am new to raising chickens. I bought 10 of them when they were 2 days old. I am loving it so far. I also have two wonderful dogs and a husband of 22 years. He works out of the country and while he is gone I just talk to my wonderful animals. I kept the chickens in the house with me until they were 8 weeks old. I didn't sleep for two nights worrying about them. I found out about backyard chicken off of the box that I bought my small chicken house. I can't wait to learn all things about my chickens.
