I don't know how many people are in or around breaux bridge. But I bought my chicks from atlas feed mills in breaux bridge I've made them my feed store they are awesome I love that they have there own feed they make from starter to grower to hen scratch they make there own mix that isn't some processed pellets or crumbles they have everything you need for feed and of course baby chicks to pullets there provider guarantees 94 percent are indeed hens I just wanted to give them a shout out they are worth the drive.from Broussard area to go to.

We hurried and got the coop's roof on yesterday in anticipation of the rain and wind. The brooder should be protected from the storm for now, and is three feet off the ground. We didn't flood in August but just in case the chicks are safe. Once the rain stops we'll be starting on the roof of the runs.

The coop looks great, glad to see some of us still getting it done,

That seems to be the way to go about It! I begged and begged for over a year for my husband to build me a coop, finally got fed up and bought some chicks. Voila, few weeks later I have a coop! and a here we are 6 weeks later and chicken math has totally taken over. Went from 6 (4 silkies, frizzle cochin bantam, and a polish) to a current count of 26. Lawd help me, I tend to go overboard! I've added a lavender silkie chick, white crested polish chick, 2 LF frizzle chicks, 12 Wyandotte chicks, 3 mystery chickens and we inherited 3 older laying hens. I will say most of the Wyandottes will be rehomded and a few others. 12 are in the coop, all the new ones are in the brooder, they range from a few days to a week old!

I have been raising chickens for just over 3 years, now well over 100 grown and another 100 growing out for the fall and spring
