    How much did you spend on your coop? **Update with pics on pg. 12**

    Just under $500 for 6 coops attached to the same run. Lots of recycled windows etc.. Most expensive was the fencing & hardware cloth. We will make that back in like 100 years or so

    ?? Average Home Flock Size ????

    Family of 5 on one acre, with 14 acres around us of fields. Just counted 63 chickens, (still not sure how that's even possible). Enough for us to eat, and give, and my six year old sells the eggs too.

    My chickens will not roost

    I have a bunch close to your ages too and they don't roost yet either. they do enjoy trying out the roosts during the day, but at night they sleep together in"clumps" on the floor on pine shavings. Give them time, they will get there soon
