Hey!

[Deuce_Dime_cntdn]

Hi everybody!
Wanted to introduce myself here. From Texas, born and raised and have 4 chickens about 6 month old now and they started laying!

I have 2 barred rocks and 2 buff orpingtons, one buff being a rooster. He's a great protector of his flock!

As low maintenance as they are, I definitely need guidance on how to navigate when they'll get sick, and the best way to enhance their lives!

Hiya, and welcome to BYC!

We have an Emergency Forum you can post your issues in if you ever have any. Maybe you'll never need to though!

We also have a Learning Center that has articles covering some basic chicken issues. If you look in the index on the left side, there's a list for articles on Injuries, Diseases, and Cures.
