Good morning from Griffin Georgia

[miatadude]

We are part time farmers of mainly vegetables but just planted 58 pecan trees, 10 pear trees, 12 apple trees and blue berries and black berries. I want to raise 4-5 chickens for eggs. Looking forward to gaining knowledge and plans to build a chicken tractor.

Hi, @miatadude and

from KY! Glad you joined the BYC community.

You've come to the right place for info. about chicken housing - you may find this Learning Center article (there are several others there) helpful: https://www.backyardchickens.com/a/tractor-vs-permanent-coop-the-pros-cons.

Best wishes for your adventures in chicken keeping!

Greetings from Kansas, miatatude, and ! Great to have you aboard! Wow! That's quite an orchard you planted! Hope you wil be up to knees in the fruits (and nuts) of that labor soon. Enjoy your farm and new chickens!

G’Day from down under miatadude

Welcome!

Peacan’s, blue berries and berries

Yum! I am coming to visit!

I wanted to grow an apple tree but read that a cold snap or frost was needed for the tree to fruit .. yeah, like that is going to happen here so I settled on a Mandarin

I hope you enjoy being a BYC member. There are lots of friendly and very helpful folks here so not only is it overflowing with useful information it is also a great place to make friends and have some fun. Unlike non chicken loving friends, family and colleagues, BYC’ers never tire of stories or pictures that feature our feathered and non feathered friends
