Hello to all, so excited to be here. I am very new to chickens we live in rural Texas and always wanted chickens because both of my grandmothers had these great chicken houses and so I grew up around them. My husband wouldn't ever let me have them so I just asked him a couple of weeks ago, do you know what I want for my birthday is a chicken coop and chickens and at first he was kinda unsure then I explained that he had his hobbies and I should have mine. So now we are going this weekend to look for a chicken coop and we have already built and levedled a pad for a chicken coop. Alot of my friends have chickens, so I can ask them for advice. So glad to be here.
