I’m mom to 2 teenagers. My 14 yr old daughter is a freshman in high school and has been wanting chickens for a while. We visited a friend who was adding chicks to her flock and decided to jump in. We have 7 now that are about 8 wks old now. We bought a coop from The Chicken Coop company and my daughter put it together. Our flock includes a Lavender, a Rhode Island Red, Delaware, Dominique, Polish, and 2 others. Looking forward to the learning curve ahead!
