    Coop height

    How tall does a coop need to be? I bought a run-in shed, had it mounted on legs, enclosed. But it's only about 3 ft high, if that. No chickens or run yet. It gets cold here, Virginia

    but apparently molting chickens molt for 3 months and have to be fed a high protein $$$ food.

    How old is too old for chickens

    A local farm sells red sexlink chickens 18 months old. From what I've read, this is molting age. they ALWAYS sell their 18 month old chickens. why should I buy these that will molt for 3 months with no eggs instead of raising chicks in the spring or buying layers in the spring?
