    Hi guys, I am an inexperienced chicken owner, we only got out lovely chooks about 2 years ago and we love them dearly. I have 4 adult girls who run part of our back yard, and I have 2 chickens (or so I thought until one grew into a BOY) who are in the chicken coop right along side the girls...

    O wow what a beautiful story. We've bought a chicken coop..approx 3.5m x 1.5m and I'm wondering how many chickens we should buy in this sized coop. And what time of year is best to buy little chickens? Also if we were to begin with adult chookies...and buy some chickens later on, how long do I...
