Checking-In On Peeps - Post Here To Say Hello!

[ronott1]

Hey all. I almost lost my account cuz I couldn't find the email I used lol but I'm back.

I made a nice winter hen house for my small tiny chickens who can't handle winter. But now that is it starting to get warm again I will be building them a new coop. Namely, a green house for a coop in the next couple weeks.

so thats what I have been up to XD

That sounds like a nice project!

Make sure the green house coop has plenty of ventilation

Howdy everyone
Been a few years since I lost my last chicken. But I've decided I'm getting back into it.
Never had more than 8 at a time before and I think I'm gunna keep my flock about the same this time.
Gotta build a new coop. Looking for ideas for a tractor coop. Probably build it myself, but not opposed to buying a kit. Last time my homebuilt red barn tractor coop got really heavy really fast with my in my head design plans.

Sounds like some fun plans. There are lots of coop articles to look through for some ideas.

Have you checked the coop section in the learning center? There is a category for tractor coops.

Haven't been on here for some years, but recently I've decided on crossbreeding my splash lavender orpington rooster, with a barred rock hen and black Australorp and a lavender orpington due to my local feed store running out of chicks as soon as I get there due to current egg shortages. Curious to see what the offsprings will look.

We have such a vibrant community here at BYC... tons of active friendly members. Of course, life gets busy, so I was thinking it would be fun to start a thread welcoming some of our peeps we haven't heard from in a while.

If that's you, come say hello and let us know what you've been up to.

(if that's not you, feel free to invite peeps you haven't seen in a while and say hi to those that post here)

It's been a little while since I've been on. We are setting eggs this week and have a brooder full for expanding our backyard flock.

Congratulations on the new flock members!

Hello I've lost a few family members, including my dad. Life has been tough, so I haven't been able to prioritize BYC, unfortunately. Things are finally coming into a state of "normalcy" and equilibrium, so I am able to dedicate more time to my passions and hobbies again; Of course, that includes BYC. I've got some eggs for the incubator on the way...Ameraucanas (TRUE Ameraucanas) and I'll be adding them to my flock of Black Australorps. Hope this little check-in finds everyone doing well. Come on, SPRING!!
