Looking for chicks? The Hatcheries page lists major hatcheries and breeders, plus some you've probably never heard of, conveniently organized by state.
 
Wondering which breed to buy? The Breeds page has links to pictures and descriptions of hundreds of breeds of chickens, turkeys, ducks, and other fowl.
 
Looking for coop pictures, plans, or ideas? Go to theCoops page.
 
Want to see egg oddities? You'll find miscolored and shell-less eggs, wierd calcium deposits, bloody yolks and more on the Funky Eggs page.
 
Want to buy/build an incubator or hatch some eggs? All the information you need is on the Incubating Eggs  page. You'll find info on troubleshooting bad hatches there too.
 
Need help getting started? See the Books page. I highly recommend "Storey's Guide to Raising Chickens." You can also get helpful advice from experienced people at BackyardChickens.com and other chicken forums; links are on the Links, Links, Links page.
 
Live in Austin County, Texas? Buy, sell, or trade almost anything, including poultry supplies and farm animals, through the Austin County Bulletin Board.
OWNING CHICKENS IS ADDICTIVE! Like potato chips, no one can have just one. Venture into the hobby and you may end up with batch, after batch, after batch of the cutest little fuzzy butts you've ever seen. It's both enjoyable and maddening.
 
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! But if you're still determined to proceed into chicken territory, this site can help you find your way.
Caution, all ye who enter here!
