My husband finally said ok to getting chickens during Covid last year. He said it was
because he gets afraid when I do not have a project. I am a nurse and he is retired from IT. We have two grown sons, one daughter-in-law, an older pug, and a cavapoo. We live in the city and are allowed 10 chicks and one rooster. We have 6, and being nice to our neighbors, no rooster. We have 2 each of buff orpingtons (so sweet) two lace Wyandotte and 2 that were to be blue Easter eggers but no blue eggs soooo?
I found this website looking for advise after a hawk attacked our chickens. No deaths. I also found 4” tunnels under my pavers that goes all around the chicken run and coop. One rat ran out when I pulled up a paver to fill it with stones.
My husband admits he really enjoys the chickens and they do have their own personality. Listening to their cooing is very peaceful. The dogs don’t pay any attention to them. After the cavapoo went into the pen and all six ran up to her surrounding her, she decided to leave them alone. It was funny, once they were grown, she was no longer bigger than them.
