I bought a coop that was recommended for 8 chickens before we bought our chicks. I ended up ordering 15 chicks, so I bought a second coop of the same size (roughly 4x5' + 3 1x1 nest boxes), thinking 40 sq ft for all 15 chickens would be enough. What I'm finding though, is that most frequently...
(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
I am new to chickens. I just received 16 day-old chicks two weeks ago, to scratch around and fertilize my soil and provide eggs. They are currentyl adorably cute!
(2) How many chickens do you have right now?
16
(3) What breeds...
I received 15 female chicks + 1 mystery rare exotic chick from McMurray Hatchery. Any idea what breed, and when I'll be able to tell if it is male or female?
Thanks!
