Hello,
My name is Cher coming to you from the beautiful state of Tennessee by way of Texas and Pennsylvania! We live on 6 1/2 acres with two lovable Cocker Spaniels, Molly and Maddie.
I have raised chickens before on our farm in Cambridge Springs, Pa. For 12+ years we raised Plymouth Barred Rocks, usually kept around 20 or so and sold the eggs.
But I finally talked my husband in to building me a small coop for four Brahma's. They will be spoiled rotten and kept for pets and eggs only. I researched the breeds and feel these will fit perfectly. They just started laying. I am getting them from a fellow co-worker whose child raises them. We hope to start our coop next weekend. I will attach pictures as we go. Any helpful hints will be appreciated. I currently an considering coarse sand in the coop itself, and the run will actually have a wooden floor to keep critters out, and I am contemplating mulch. I look forward to hearing from ya'll with your ideas!
