    coyote in the driveway!!

    I would like to know about this too. We are about to possibly move to a rural area that has coyotes. I want to get chickens then, but not if they will draw coyotes and endanger my kids. (They are 9, 7, 6, 3, and 1.) And we don't have a dog. Yikes!

    Is a flock of 2 chickens too small?

    Quote: Thanks for the info. That's good to know! I wish I could have a mini cow! Maybe someday... In the meantime, perhaps I'll be able to have a real flock of chickens after all.

    Hello from Colorado

    Thanks for the welcomes! We live in Arvada. We're allowed a grand total of 2 chickens here! I guess that's better than some places.

    Is a flock of 2 chickens too small?

    I'm new here, and new to raising chickens (I don't have any yet.) In my area I can legally have 2 chickens. I'm glad that at least it's legal here, but disappointed at the pitifully small number allowed. Our yard is right near --and visible from--a busy street so I think it would be difficult to...

    Hello from Colorado

    Hi there, It's good to meet all of you. I don't own any chickens yet, but hope to soon. I can't tell you how thrilled I was to find out that people raise chickens in their backyards and that I don't have to live on a farm to have a few. I look forward to asking some questions and learning lots!
