Hello everyone! Thank you for responses.
First: I am about to begin my new, permanent coop in my back yard. I am going to have my chickens and hogs in the same area, how close can they be? Seperate pens obviously, but how close can one yard come to the other without causing grief for either one?
Second: I am down to one roo and two hens because a dog got another one two days ago.. When I get the permanent copp together I will be getting 15 baby chicks. So how do I old do they need to be before introducing them into the coop with the older ones and what is the best way to put 15 youngins in with three older ones??
any help given will be greatly appreciated.
Chris
