    Do my girls need a ladder?

    Nothing is wrong with a ladder. I have one gets them to a walkway at the window sill height. The other turns right there and goes up the other direction to the roost bar at 7 feet high. It took awhile for all of them to get it figured out. Now they all sleep up high and walk down the ladders in...

    enough coop and run space?

    Looks really nice. I'm new to raising chickens this spring. We had them when I was little. And I had a hankering to get back in it.good luck in your poultry process.

    enough coop and run space?

    Does the 200 square. Feet include under the coop. There should be plenty of room inside. You need to utilize inside corners for roosts and realize they will hang out a lot under neath in the heat.

    pross/cons of chickens?

    Not going to worry about the cost . You me and the next guy are going to have to buy feed. The egg quality and quantity should offset that.

    Household supplements for chicks?

    Just sticking to the mannapro medicated chick feed. Maybe someone will tell us what bananas fed to chicks do.
