Not exactly a new member, but...

Hey you all, I joined a few years ago,meaning to get chickens, but life interfered. I just took the plunge this past march 1 and bought 6 Easter egger from my local feed store. All six survived and are currently living in my hobbit hole hutch. I was so pleased with my success that I decided to order 6 Welsummer, 6 BCM, 6 Colombian Wyandotte and 6 white leghorns. I bought them as day old sexed pulleys, but I expect at least a third of them will be dinner. Errr, I mean Roos. Roos is the word I was searching for.

Welcome!

Thank you for the chuckle

As you have already received links to some great starting points, I will just wish you all the best.

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.

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
