    Do you like roosters?

    Our first go at this chicken thing!

    Magnificent! I especially like the stained glass window in the coop; a really nice touch. Those chickens are going to have a very good life in your care. If I may, how big is the run in square feet? I'm trying to plan for my own flock and am trying to get a handle on how much outdoor space to...
