Just joined, new to this hobby and looking forward to it. I am a retired pilot with too much time and not enough energy. Gonns build a chicken caravan like the Aussie model. Have a chassis from a camper and plan to move this unit all around our farm. Thinking of starting with RIR hens and roosters, 24 hens and 4 rooster. Would like to have broody hens raise young birds, was told RIR hens are less broody than other breeds, any thoughts? Local farm supply {privately owned} sells chicks and has a great reputation for being honest and helpful. Will add pictures of the caravan as build progresses. Thanks to all for so much information shared on this site.
