Thanks for the warm welcome. We are nearly two months into rainsing our RIR's. The coop was a big success and hit with the family. We have a couple of improvements to make but it is very functional.
We let them in the backyard from time to time and they are a joy to watch. We had forgotten how quickly they grow. It wont be that long and we will have all the eggs we need and some for neighbors who tollerate the chickens.
