Do any of you have a problem with a pet cat trying to get at chickens? I’m interested in getting some chickens so this is definitely something I would need to look into. My cat is relatively old and has never had a particular interest in hunting… but still I think it would be safe to check.
So I plan on getting 3 chickens, but would like to get 6 later on if possible. Would it be ok if my chickens have double the space they need (for now) as in 20 sq feet of run space per chicken and 8 sq feet of coop space per chicken?
So I’m going to be getting 3 chickens this Spring and have started designing the run. I was thinking maybe make the floor of the run dirt, but say 2 inches below the dirt have concrete, so that the run is safe, but comfortable. Is this a good idea or should I discard any plans of using concrete?
