Thread Starter 

Hi. My name is Leah. I live in the country on the Michigan side of the MI/Ohio border. My husband, 4 kids and I just ordered our first chicks. In a few weeks we will have 2 each - Buff Orpington, Black Austrolorps, Ameraucana and 1 each of Silver laced Wyandotte, Golden Laced Wyandotte and Barred Rock. I am hoping to find a Black Copper Maran too. We are very excited for their arrival. Now I have to decide on a coop. Suggestions for plans are greatly welcome!

 

I look forward to talking to you all and learning a ton.

              one fat pony, and many (but not too many!) chickens

              Can anyone tell me, how many are too many chickens?

Daria: Could you possibly be referring to the harsh light of reality?
