Chicken Newb

Hello, and welcome to BYC. NEVER let your husband know how much those 'free' eggs really cost.

Good tip, although if he really puts no effort in at all I’m inclined to charge him for them!

Wow you guys are all so lovely! I should have got chickens ages ago
Thank you for letting me be a part of this lovely community x

Can I ask a quick question here please? I’ve started work preparing my garden for the coop and run build and would like to take pictures and update as it goes on - I’m thinking an article that I can update at each stage so others can see how it turns out (and likely learn from my mistakes). I’m thinking the best place for it is in the Chicken Coop section of the articles, they the other articles all seem to be about finished coops - is there somewhere else better suited?

Thanks for your guidance

You can either do an article or even start a thread in our Coop and Run forums, lots of running updated coops going on there... https://www.backyardchickens.com/forums/coop-run-design-construction-maintenance.9/

We also have a Coop Contest going on now so once you are finished, definitely enter the contest! https://www.backyardchickens.com/th...o-automatic-chicken-coop-door-opener.1407000/
