I'm not really new,but just getting started. We finished the coop a few days ago, well my neighbor did. Just have to finish painting, and order a few things, then can go get the chickens. The big debate now is whether we should get 3 or 4?, we are thinking of getting either 3 or 4 RIR, or maybe 2 RIR, 1BR and 1BO, not sure sure yet. or coop can do a max of 4, and it is totally illegal to keep chickens in our neighborhood,but we are going for it.
