Greetings from North Tustin, CA

Hello, friends!

I grew up with three hens and a rooster.

Now, as an adult, I've convinced my husband that having chickens is a "good idea." We plan to stage an area in our yard this weekend - and build the coop ourselves.

We're picking up 4 (or 6) chicks next week from the local Wagon Train Feed Store.

I'm excited, anxious, and hoping not to screw up. Will be lurking on the forum all weekend.

Thanks, all!!!

First silly question (too shy to start a new thread) is -

If they all eat the wild arugula out back... what are the chances of eggs tasting like arugula?!?!!?
