Have lurked here for a while. Finally signed up. We're not new to chickens but presently have none due to our recent move. Currently building a coop. Plan to get little ones come spring. Haven't decided on breed(s). Chickens will mostly have the run of the place if we can keep the coyotes, hawks, eagles, skunks, 'coons, weasels and feral cats from getting them. Regards, Woody
