Hello all! smile.png

 

Lurker and hopefully-soon-to-be chicken owner here, taking the plunge and joining up for forum membership. wink.png Been picking through the forums to get ready (coop kit arriving soon, making list of supplies to buy, then time to pick out some chickens!) and well, figured I should get a forum name if we ever want to participate! Being a lurker for a while has already been invaluable, as I've already dodged some shoddy premade coops thanks to the discussions on these boards, ha.

 

Very modest plans for us, around three chickens for eggs only, as my guy has already declared that if we name them we can't eat them. roll.pnglol.png

Hi and welcome to BYC from northern Michigan big_smile.png

Home of the world's cutest dachshund, one crazy blue heeler, two cats,
              one fat pony, and many (but not too many!) chickens

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