New member intrduction

[Loplady2020]

Hi there,
My name is Laurie V. I am new to chickens and came across the site searching for answers.
I live on 3 acres with my husband, daughter and three grandchildren. We have 6 Henson we are raising up. 3 Buff Orpingtons and3 Silver Wyndots.
My husband crafted our chiken coop from an old utility trailer.
I also raise rabbits and we have an elderly Lab.
Predators are a big issue, racoons, coyotes and birds of prey.
Looking forward to chatting with you all and sharing ideas and information.
