Hello everyone, new member and new to chickens SC

[SheenaL]

South Carolina person here.
I just got my flock on May 2nd, 10 hens and 1 Roo. They are Easter eggers. I've always wanted chickens, mostly to be self sufficient; but having a farm with 2 horses and 7 barns cats I figured why not add chickens. Now I'm considering milking/meat goats and/or calves to raise for beef. I've purchased New Zealand meat rabbits and will be bringing them to farm soon.

I hope I can hop on here to find answers to the many issues I'm sure to run in to in raising chickens and thank you all for your time.

Hiya, and welcome to BYC!!

BYC has lots of articles in the Learning Center that can perhaps help with the chickens.

As for your four-legged pals, we have a sister site.
