Hi

Glad you could join the flock! Sorry but I don't raise or have experience of game fowl but please do drop by the General breed section of the forum I'm sure there are lots of game threads there. Here is the link https://www.backyardchickens.com/f/14/general-breed-discussions-amp-faq

The coop section should also give you some great ideas on making coops and runs for your hens https://www.backyardchickens.com/atype/2/Coop_Designs

Wishing you the very best of luck, enjoy BYC

glad you have joined us.

I think game birds like chickens need complete nutrition in the feed you offer. Have seen game bird feeds at feed and seed stores. I encourage you to take the advice Yorshire coop has given about the other forums where you can get experienced input and advice.

Hope the truck is one you don't have to use anytime soon?
