Hello everyone. I am just starting this journey. I had bought a small premade coop in November and picked up two ISA browns from a friend. Now I am already wanting to expand. Currently working on repurposing an old playhouse into a coop and looking forward to going to a Bird Swap next month. Hoping to acquire just two more hens. Doubt I can stop at two. I reside in Georgia, US.

Welcome to the forum! ISA browns hold a special place in my heart, yes they might be aggressive and annoying at times, they do have their problems after a certain age, and yes, they do stop laying early, but they're just so sassy and personable! And you're SO right, it's impossible to stop at just two chickens! Hope to see you around

Welcome to BYC. Be careful with swaps. There many unscrupulous sellers, as well as people who just don't realize that their chickens have a communicable disease. Once a chicken has a respiratory illness they are carriers for life.

@janiedoe has made some good points about adding more birds to your flock. This article from the Learning Center can give you an idea of the safest way to do it (pay particular attention to the quarantine info): introducing-new-chickens-using-the-“see-but-don’t-touch”-method.67839

Best wishes!
