Hello and welcome to BYC! :frow Glad you joined.
Do you already have their coop and run build? I strongly suggest you add 2 more chicks. Two chickens is not a good number because when one of them dies the other one is going to be left all alone and that's a situation no chicken wants to find itself in.

Hello! No, we don’t have their coop and run built yet. We’re most likely going to purchase a used one or pre-made one off Amazon/Tractor Supply/ EBay. My husband and I aren’t talented enough at woodwork. 😊 I appreciate the advice. We’re making sure that we can successfully take care of 2 chicks for now and plan to slowly add more. These two were given to us by my son’s teacher. They were hatched in their classroom. Fortunately, we also have a neighbor who has chickens and would be willing to help if something were to happen to one of them.

DON'T do it!!! You will regret it.

If you have a shed or something similar that you could convert all or part of into a coop you will be SO much better off. Those pre-fabs are horrible in every imaginable way.

Thanks. We do not have a shed. We definitely have space but I’ll look around. We have a couple weeks, so I’m sure we can find something. 😊
 
Welcome to the coop! I use the Forums and Articles tabs at the top of the page to do research. You can get lost for hours. It's nice to know you are minutes away from getting help with questions and emergencies! I always check in the "What's New" section as well at the top of this page. This way I can read how I may have a similar question or help give some advice.
