Hello - We are soon to be chicken owners, just receiving permission to house 4 hens. We live in Euclid, OH and have two children ages 7 and 9 who are very excited to have chickens!
After an exhaustive and very frustrating Internet search for a coop, we found a local feed store who has very sturdy coops for sale at a reasonable price. Hurrah! They also have four faverolles for sale. Are these a good breed for people who have kids and do they lay well? Also, what type of waterer and feeder do people prefer? I've heard that the galvanized waterers rust. Help!
