I've wanted chickens my whole life and am thrilled to finally have them and to have the resources that you all contribute at my fingertips!
We are a family of 5, mom, dad, 16 yr old son, 13 yr old son and 3 yr old daughter. We just moved into a tiny old farm house on about 2 acres and I just couldn't resist the little puff balls at the feed store! The whole family loves the chicks and are amazed at just how quickly the grow up.
We have 6 chicks all about 4 weeks old; 1 Rhode Island Red, 1 blue Andalusian, 1 Buff Brahma, 1 Barred Rock, 1 silver laced Wyandotte, and 1 amber white. We love these little buggers SO much!
They're getting to big to be inside and are almost fully feathered so we need to get a move on with the coop! I'm a bit worried about coons so I'm going to check out the threads about predator proofing before we start. Any ideas or advice is welcome!!! Thank you all!
