My darling and I just built our first coop, and it's a beauty. We haven't put in the roosts yet, but it looks like the internet consensus is that 2x4s are better than tree branches. We have an old glass-paned window on one side of the coop, and I was wondering if the chickens will want to roost...

We're going to have 3-5 layers, and have an interest in maybe raising a duck or two. Since roosters are illegal, we're thinking about getting a drake. We hear that hens feel a little more secure with a man around the house. Is this a good idea?
