Hi!
I just found this site and had to join. We are currently in the process of finishing our coop and a large run attached to my garden for them to roam. I can only have 4 chickens in my city, and I found a breeder, so we're still a couple more weeks out before picking up the newest family members! I'm at the excited and nervous stage right now.

Congratulations! Chicken keeping is a rewarding experience. Especially with those first eggs!

Hi and

Good luck with your coop, and getting started! It's very interesting to keep chickens, I'm sure you'll have some great times!

We have only ever had 4 chickens as well, it's a good number.

Enjoy the site

Welcome aboard. How big is the coop you are building for your 4 ladies? What breed of chicken are you getting?
