We just finished our coop and purchased our first 10 chicks,4 french guineas and 2 Pekin ducks on Saturday at 3 days old♡ we are getting ready to start on the outdoor run and enclosure this weekend. We are looking forward to learning poultry. Still trying to learn the lingo
Welcome! Newbie here too! We have had our chicks for 6 days now. Ranging in age from 1.5 week to about 4 weeks old, mixed flock.

G’Day from down under Tammy & Bill Welcome! 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
Nice to meet you Tammy & Bill. It would be good if there was a BYC chicken lingo translator. Welcome to Backyard chickens flock.
Wait...you forgot the partridge in a pear tree! Congrats on your birds, I hope you have years of fun with them.
