In the Brooder
Hi, I am new to the whole backyard chicken idea. I've been toying with the idea for the last 2-3 years. My sister decided she wanted to try it too. We live an hour apart but are learning together. We ordered 6 chicks from Myers Hatchery. 2 Easter eggers each & 1 Dominique each. We get them in early April. Looking now into getting a small coop & brooding equipment. We are both reading & learning alot. Sometimes we find conflicting information. I am not a builder. What is a good coop to buy for 6 chickens. I am getting 3 for now & when they stop laying they will be pets & get 3 more to lay.I need a coop that will be good in the winter as I live in Northeast PA. Also I am worrying about making it critter proof. All advice is welcome.Thanks
