Another Newbie

[Wellbie]

My wife and I are newbies to chickens. We just got 6 chicks 3-4 weeks old now. Americana, creme legbar, welbar, buff orpington, production red and barred rock. Bought a nice coop and a 10 by 10 dog pen for their run. Gonna try to post some pics. Happy to be here!

Hello and welcome to BYC! Glad you joined.
What are your temperatures like over the next couple of weeks?
Where are you located?
If you have weasels in your area, your birds are at risk. Your coop could also be invaded by mice. The wire on your coop will allow entry for both.
