Hi fellow Chicken enthusiasts. Due to some neighbors getting divorced I am getting 6 Hens (the hens got the worst of the deal as they are homeless)
Luckily I checked with my town and I can have up to 6 hens legally on my property (no roosters allowed)
So being on Long Island where it gets pretty cold over the winter I am moving into high gear on building a coop and run in quick fashion.
I will be posting my plans and progress in the build area.
Mostly I hope to get some eggs and teach the boys 5 and 10 years some responsibility.. I am sure I will do most/all of the work but if I could just get them to feed scraps to the birds it would be a start.
This site rocks and has already answered ton of questions for me!
