    Any other hawaiians out there?

    Girls are about 4 months. I think I will put some hardware wire and stakes to keep them off the paved area and contained to the dirt/grassy area and plant some herbs/veggies/grass. Thank you so much!

    What do I need to get started??

    I think I can free range and just get a coop for sleeping. I'm attaching pics of the space I have for them it's already enclosed the side of the house and a 7 ft fence. Thoughts?

    What do I need to get started??

    Now I'm feeling stupid for buying the coop so impulsively. I get excited sometimes and maybe carried away. I suppose I could also return it to the store here and try to find something else???

    What do I need to get started??

    Not yet. I will post one as soon as I get it set up. I am attaching a picture of the coop I have ordered. Should arrive next week. Mine will not be in a location like this, but on the side of the house (about 6 feet wide) with a tall wooden fence between my yard and the neighbors.

    What do I need to get started??

    Quick question. Feeders and waterers for inside the coop and in the run? So 2 of each for 5 hens? I'm sure the breeder can help me out too, but I want to be as prepared as possible in advance.

    What do I need to get started??

    Fortunately, we don't have many predators in Hawaii. Mongoose maybe. No snakes or predatory birds where I live. We do have nasty centipedes, but I've hear that the chickens love to eat them, so win-win. I think I should be able to let them free range a bit. I have a space on the side of the...
