We're thinking of getting a couple of chickens for eggs. We're still only in the research phase, but I know I'd want to build a coop before buying any chickens. I'm in North Louisiana so I'm more worried about heat than cold. But I also live out in the woods which means lots of predators. I have plenty of space for them to run free. So they'd really only be the coop at night. And am mostly looking for something to protect them from bad weather and other animals. We're thinking 3 hens and a rooster. Funds are tight and I'm probably going to be building this myself. I'm looking for any advice (or recommended plans) on any topics: coops, breeds, care etc.
