Hello everyone! Raising chickens is a new experience for my family. My daughter is raising 10 buff Orpington as part of a year long project for her Agriscience class. I’ve learned so much from reading about your experiences, that have decided to join in and benefit even more from your knowledge. Our chickens are almost 7 weeks old and living inside the house with us until the school coop is built. So yes, lots of cleaning on a daily basis. But never did I think chickens could have so much personality, it’s been busy and fun so far!
 
Hi and welcome to BYC - thanks for joining us. Keeping chickens is a great hobby for all the family and becomes rather addictive.

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 your state thread as it will put you in touch with other BYC members in your area - http://www.backyardchickens.com/t/270925/find-your-states-thread#post_3239224
