Hello all!
I just brought home four chicks last Saturday. Even before we brought them home, I started looking into idea for coops...but I just can't decide!!! I feel overwhelmed by all of the choices and variations! Any tips? How did you choose your coop? How long did it take you to plan it and build it? I live on 3/4 acre and the chickens, by law, have to be contained in a run at all times (which I don't mind since we live on a main road). What size coop and run did you settle on? Was it enough? I basically want to pick everyone's brain -- how did you make your decisions?
