Hello from California

[paulsmithswife]

I have 4 chickens. Made my coop with my daughter and a dog house plan. Was pretty easy and Home Depot made the cuts for me. Actually, I shouldn't say it was easy .. but, it wasn't too complicated :0

Welcome, I'm in California as well!

Your budget sounds like you ought to be able to find something nice for two chickens! It's more when you get up into large numbers of chickens that things get a little more pressing and hard to figure out. Good luck!
