I'm up in Ridge, right on the border of wading river. My DH works in the hamptons.
I buy feed at agway....the ladies there are nice but don't know jack about chickens. Come here for you advice
Nice to see another LIer!!
Ok an update! My chicks have been outside day and night for a week. Here is some pictures of what I have right now. I also have some questions. The fence is a temp but it serves the purpose for now. The space they are in used to be my garden. I plan on putting up a 6 or 7 foot fence up next weeked. I am torn on whether to cover it. The coop is a dog house (4x4). I added the door and the vents. I might put another vent along the top. I am also planning on putting a window on the side and doors to open to the nesting boxes. They like to hang out under the coop, I guess it is cool and out of the sun. The chicks seem to be adjusting well. At night they are all secure and tight.
Such a cute setup! I love the barn! I'm wondering what the white thing is on the side of the barn.
Also, I have a coop about that size that I put up on 2 cinder blocks at each corner instead of 1 which gives my birds room to go under. They love it under there.
