We are planning to get chickens for the first time next spring. I'm so excited about it and have been doing a lot of reading both on BYC and other sites as well as good old fashioned books. I have also had the chance to view a guy's set up and talk with him briefly when I noticed he had chickens while we were at his garage sale. I finally sat down and drew up what I want my coop/run to look like and I am hoping to get some feedback from all you lovely BYC folks as to what you think is good/bad/needs to change. Since we will be getting six chicks, I drew in two nest boxes, three roosts and what I think is enough space for them. There are vents across the top of the coop at minimum, though I am thinking about putting in some more. There's a storage area above the coop and the run continues under it. Please let me know, honestly, what you think. I'm new and need all the help I can get!
