WOW. The amount of info here is incredible

As a new member that has had chickens as a youth when Dad had them.. I'm impressed on the amount of info on this site.

Not ready to jump in feet first, but I've been reading and researching what I need. The coop desings have been most helpful.

Looking forward to getting a few ladies.

I'm so looking forward to it. Been paying $4.00 a dz for fresh eggs. I remember how much better fresh tasted as a youth. Need to sell current home first. Don't want to re introduce the gal's to a new place just as there getting used to the current home.

Absolutely. I've been hesitant to post as I know I'm not even ready to build.
But I need to let everyone know how impressed I am with the amount of info and how helpful everyone is.

BYC is great.

You may ask a question and get 10 different answers. They're is never one right way to raise chickens, it's up to you to decide what will work best for your situation. If you add your general location to your profile, it will help us give better answers, according to the type of weather you have.

A few things that work good for me and others on here that you might want to look into.
Mama Heat Pad for raising chicks

Welcome to BYC!

but I've been reading and researching what I need.

Good for you!!
That will make everything easier once you do build.

The amount of info is like getting a sip of water from a fire hose.
Not all of it is good info tho, so sift thru it carefully.
Take notes and save links in a word doc or spreadsheet.
I spent about 6 months researching and designing before building, avoided a lot of newbie errors that way.
