Hello Barbara and welcome to BYC, You found an Awesome poultry Forum to be a part of with many great knowledgeable members who are more then willing to jump in and help you with any questions you may have.
Hello, and welcome! Good luck in deciding what breed or breed's that you will want to get, and in how many will fit into a coop. When the pre-fab one's say they will fit 6 chicken's, they must be thinking about the smaller sized chicken's.
