I have been thinking of getting more chickens. I find them interesting pets. I have two sebright bantams (a pair. the rooster is really mean but I love him anyway hope I can find some way to stop pecking me so hard and stop trying to slash me with his talons) I used to have two Easter eggers from a feed store as babies but one died at his early age(I have no clue what cause him/she to die so young. she couldnt walk, eat, drink so I put the water bowl and feeder bowl close to her so it can be available to her) so I had one left and bought another Easter egger but as they grew together the new one I bought turn out to be a red sex ling but all wells. But then my remaining Easter egger had the same problem from it sibling and died I cried so hard when I found out early in the morning.
So I have been thinking to get more. I was wondering if I should get more because I dont want to over crowd them in the coop. the coop is 6 length by 5 wide and 5 tall so I want to know what the maximum chicken I can put in their.
And yes Im new here. I love my chickens but lately I havent been spending so much time with them when I was in elementary school but ever sing I been to middle school now high school I dont have time as much as before(except summer vacation. I usually spend a lot of time with them on summer vacation)
I have my sebright bantam over 4 years now.my red sex link is my newest chicken I forgot what month I got her. I have tried incubating my sebright bantam eggs but all died one by one. Now I found out why. Maybe next spring I will try to incubate them again and buy some Easter eggers again
