Hello,

[slummus]

Hello ya'll! My husband and I have decided over the last week or so that we want to get started raising chickens for our family. We are only interested in eggs not meat. We are looking for any advice, suggestions, and free coop plans. Have a great night! Thanks!

the Learning Center is a great place to start

Greetings from Kansas, slummus, and

! Great to have you here! BYC is your one stop for research! I'd start out at the Learning Center link below - it will give the knowledge you need to be a responsible chicken keeper.

And here is the Coops section where you can find a style/design you might like. Then I'd type in a search in the BYC search bar for 'free coop plans' - several should pop up.

And here is a really cool chart that compares lots of breeds by attribute. Good luck and have fun on your chicken journey!!
