A friend suggested I join so I could gather info about possibly setting up a small backyard coop & run for maybe 4 chickens so that I can have eggs.
As a kid my folks had meat chickens but I never really dealt with any of that, but I have always thought as an adult to have just a couple chickens for eggs. I live in a small rural town in Kansas, many neighbors have chickens, so I know my town allows it. Now just to figure out where to begin so I do this right.
I have 2 dogs & 1 cat, and several 'neighborhood' cats to protect the chickens from. I plan to have my small coop inside my fenced yard so my dogs can help guard it for a little extra security.
Anyways, I will be looking through the group and possibly building a coop this year so I can be prepared for chickens next spring!
