OK y'all. I've searched the internet and this forum to no avail. I had 2 ducklings brought to me today that were TSC rescues. They call a friend of mine whenever they have chickens or ducks that have a problem to see if she can rescue them, and sometimes she brings them to me. One of them has...

I'm from a little town near Lexington, KY. I've been wanting some chickens of my own ever since I helped care for my nephew's chickens and fell in love! I am finally in a location where I can have a small coop, and bought one today! The coop I bought will house 4 - 6 chickens...
