Hi, my name is Dori and I don't have chickens YET but they are in my future. I just moved to 2 acres in Texas and the grandkids want "chickies" and so I am researching as much as I can before I plunge in! Found this website from the book I bought, Building Chicken Coops for Dummies which pretty much says it all. I appreciate any and all tips y'all can provide! Pictures of everything to be posted once I get it all together, probably another 2 months.
 
Hello Dori and welcome to BYC! :frow

How egg-citing! Definitely stop by our Learning Center too for lots of great articles on all the aspects of keeping chickens... https://www.backyardchickens.com/articles/

Great to have you aboard and welcome to our roost! :)

I hope you enjoy being a BYC member. There are lots of friendly and very helpful folks here so not only is it overflowing with useful information it is also a great place to make friends and have some fun.

BYC has a Learning Centre and also Topic of the Week articles which I have found to be a great resource and a one stop shop for questions which may have already been discussed within the BYC membership group.

If you would like to share Pictures and Stories of the coop build or your flock when they arrive, you have come to the right place. BYC’ers never tire of these and do not back away slowly or commence eye rolling when the photo album or home videos come out ;)
