Hi All,
My name is Kasey and I live in Waco, TX. I am new to the chicken world but very eager to get started.
We bought our first house last August on 1.5 acres in the country about 20 mins outside of Waco. I grew up spending summers on my grandparents farm where they raised all sorts of barn animals, including laying hens. So chickens aren't totally new to be but I have never kept or raised them myself. We are converting a barn/shed, previously used to house the prior owners children's fair pigs, into a coop for my chickens.
We have leveled the dirt and are going to put up chicken wire next and hang my recently purchased metal, 10 hole nesting boxes, in preparation for my chicks. I am hoping to get them by the end of the month or early next month
I hope that this will prove to be a great source of info for me!
I look forward to meeting/talking with everyone!
Kasey
