Hey y'all! My name is Dan and I would like to introduce myself.
I've been interested in keeping chickens for over a year or so but living in south Florida did not lend itself to the "lifestyle". So my wife and I decided to move to north Idaho. And shortly thereafter our chicken experience began.
I had a tight budget for the coop, only $100!!! So I decided to build the coop out of reclaimed materials. I started with 6 pallets, non pressure treated, some tin roofing and siding. A few days later the coop was complete for 8 bucks!!!!
Enter the chickens. We ordered red stars from murray mcmurray and couldn't be happier! They are a blast to watch and care for! About 7 weeks old and looking forward to some home grown eggs!
