Hollywood, MD. here as well. Just about to enter the wild world of chickens. What's the best place around to get pullets. The amish hen houses I'm guessing?
Thanks.
How many nesting boxes should I have if I'm looking at 6-10 chickens? I've read on here that you don't want them to spend all their time in the boxes, so I shouldn't have one for every hen?
Thanks,
Ryan
1st timer here. After reading quite a bit through this thread, I'm guessing that in Southern Maryland insulating my 8'x8' or 8' x 10' coup won't be necessary for 6-8 birds with our relatively mild winters here?
Thanks for your time!
