Glad to meet you, Alyse. Best wishes with your gardening and canning! It's been a crazy year for weather everywhere, I think.
Here is my favorite article for starting out chicken keepers!

Best wishes for your birds, and all your plans. I think your kids will enjoy the chickens, too.

To read more about coop construction and predator protection, check out forums and articles. You might also talk to other folks in your area about local conditions of climate and predators. You can also arrange assistance, trades, sales that way.
