I'm inheriting 2 Buff Orps!!!!

all my chickens are indoors and they stay in dog crates through out winter. I let them out once a day to play in the house with supervision then after a while they go back in

I used pine shavings and I used a couple bricks to give the waterer hight. if you have a wire dog crate. you can stick in branches for them to roost.

I have a wire dog crate.....so i imagine my house will be dusty, dusty, dusty! Last spring we had my flocks brooder box in the house and it took forever to clean up the dust. It was amazing the rooms I found it in.
 
I don't know that I'd let them in the house if that's not what your intentions are for them in the long run. Since they are already adjusting to a new place you might as well break them of the house habit at the same time. I think if you let them in, they will always bug you to get in, where as if they never where in your house they won't know to try.

Yea, I have a feeling they will be pecking their little beaks at the back door say....Let me in....we've always slept inside....we always did at our old house. I better get organized and fast.

Naw...DH wouldn't let them live in the house.....I don't think. I do bring chickens in the house to visit weekly, though. I can't wait! I'm getting really excited about them.
