Plan sounds good. Even if not for eggs, waiting until next year (or a year after) for new additions lets you reevaluate what breeds you might want, or to make changes/improvements if needed to make chicken keeping easier for you.So I think I've cooled my jets a bit, making myself remember that the original plan was 3 for year 1 and then 2 each for years 2 and 3, and then see where we are. I'm 70, so if I wind up hanging out in another five years with geriatric hens, I'll be in good company.
Gorgeous birds, and what a nicely built run!
If any mice get in, I fully expect the girls to take care of them promptly! Unlike our grossly incompetent cat.
