    Hello! :-D Building My Own Coop at 70 Years Old. Chickens On The Way in the Spring!

    (1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens? I'm actually new to chickens. My daughter caught the fever about a year ago. I've watched her raise her backyard crew over the last year and really wanted to be a hands-on chicken mama. (2) How many chickens do you have right now...
