Thank all of you for your replies! I have yet even build a coop, but I'm just doing some research on breeds. So far I like the Orpingtons but I also wanted a Silkie-more as pet. Any feed back?
So, I'm in the Fredericksburg area and would like to know where I can buy supplies; does anyone have some input? BTW, I'm new to all of this, and just tring to map a gameplan.
