    Cause of death for my chicken?

    Where can I get my chickens from.

    I think i know what breeds I like. The problem is that I only want about 6 chickens for eggs. If you order online, the fees cost more than the actual birds. There was 40 dollars of fees with shipping and a fee for having under 15 chickens.

    What kind of chickens are best for me?

    I want 6-8 chickens. I mainly want them for egg production but maybe one or two bantams. I also want them to be relatively calm. I want more than one breed so if you could, give a few examples. Thanks :)

    How cheap could I build a chicken coop and run for 6 chickens?

    I want to get chickens to produce eggs and for an FFA project. All the coops I can see online are very small and expensive. Can you give an estimate of what the price would about cost.
