Chicks ordered and ready for the fun. Joined byc today and looking forward to learning a lot. Hen house is in process...a box truck w truck cab removed and hitch will be added. Lot of work to do but dh is working on it. Can't wait till it is done!

and Welcome To BYC! Good luck on the coop build and with the new chicks when you get them! Sounds like you are going to have an interesting re-purposing project for your coop, be sure to take plenty of pictures and put them up in the BYC Coops section. You might like to stop by the Learning Center, lots of good articles on all aspects of chicken keeping.
