I will be getting 25 Buff Orpington chicks in early June. We will be keeping about 6 for layers and the rest will be for meat.
I have an 8 x 14' shed that I would like to turn into a double coop.
If I wall off a 4 X 8 section to use for the layers, will the remaining 8' x 10' space be large...
I recently had the urge to raise some chickens after many years. Local bylaws say that we can have 10 chickens but no roosters..... So naturally I ordered 25 Buff Orpingtons today... lol
We live in an area where the houses are fairly private and are all on 2 acre lots and the minimum chick order...
