    2 year old hens stopped laying

    Coop/Run location help—too close to house?

    Hello, I’m new here and new to the whole chicken experience, but very excited to get started! I am in the design phase and my question is concerning coop and run location. Is it ill advised to put them right next to my home? I plan to repurpose an unused dog run that is right next to my house...
