Well.... knowing absolutely NOTHING about keeping chickens but always wanting some, and it being against county codes, I did what any mild mannered suburbanite with zero construction skills would do. Went out and bought a few chicks and built a coop.
The trio...
Supposedly a green laying EE, a blue laying Americanus and a chocolate laying Black Cooper Maran (at least I 'think' that's what they are supposed to be). Now exactly the trio I wanted but there is unfortunately a dirth of chicks anywhere even remotely close.
For the life of me I couldn't find idiot proof directions or follow the very few I could find online so I just forged ahead with nothing but a basic idea in my head. Started off simple enough...
It got a little more involved before all was said and done....
Oh well.... hopefully I didn't make any overly critical errors. We'll see.
LOTS of annoying newbie questions to come, almost guaranteed. Thanks in advance for any assistance!
