We are new to chickens but everyone excited! 8 and 5 year olds committed to cleaning and feeding. Wife a willing back up. Next steps scrounging a neighborhood construction site for good lumber and maybe even a metal roof!

Welcome to BYC! I'm still excited about raising chickens even after having done it for over 50 years. Make sure you build that new coop predator proof. Use hardward cloth, not chicken wire as there are just too many predators that can either tear through chicken wire or pass through the openings in the mesh. Good luck in getting your flock.
