Brand New...

[Momlife]

Just wanted to say a quick hello.

I have the opportunity to take in 9 hens and a rooster. Two black Americanas, one black sex link, one road island red, two welsummers, one EE, two barred rock. The roosters is a pure bred welsummer.

I am in the process of constructing the coop and looking for any help with plan ideas.

I live in Port Hope, Ontario, Canada.

Trying to get as much information as possible
