I just bought a house and the previous owners left over twenty chickens in a large, delapidated coop that looks nothing like the nice things I see in the photos in this forum. It's about 20x30 feet, metal/wood sides with a tarp covering most of it. There are no nesting areas except for a few boards leaning against the sides. What am I going to do with these chickens until I can hopefully give most of them away. I'd like to keep five maybe and build a nice coop for them but what do I do with all these chickens until then? What do I feed them? I assume they need water. They all look pretty healthy now but that can change quickly if I don't start tending to them. I'm a city boy who's suddenly running a chicken ranch.
