Just got mail order chicks from McMurtry hatchery last Friday, and I’m excited to learn all about raising them!

Welcome to BYC!


Please post photos of your chicks, I (we) want to see them.

Thank you! I built my coop from a plan I bought on Etsy. I’m currently working on the run

Great job!
I'd go back in and add a lot more ventilation though. Pop a ridge vent in, add some gable vents and open up the space between the rafters then secure that area with 1/2" hardware cloth.
