Hello!

I'm new to having chickens. We got 4 day-old chicks on April 21, 2024. Two Crested Cream Legbars, 1 Cinnamon Queen and 1 black sex-link. They're all now 6 months old.

We had an old garden shed in our backyard so we tore it down and rebuilt it into a coop and enclosed run. It's pretty nice! I call it Cluckingham Palace – but I'm sure I'm not the first one to name my coop that!

I love the girls' antics and their individual personalities. My absolute favourite is when they're free-ranging and they hear me open the back door and they all come running! The sound of their feet slapping on the deck is priceless. :)

We have one cat who likes to observe the chickens but the chickens are definitely in charge. I love gardening and doing house projects, and we also spend lots of time doing outdoor activities like camping, hiking, mountain biking, skiing, etc.

I joined BYC (via Reddit) because I'm new to caring for chickens and I know that having community support is essential to their quality of life.
