Welcome to BYC @TwiceshyNWI

Welcome. This is my short summary:

• Do not buy a pre-manufactured coop
• Convert a shed or make your own - and make it big
• Put ventilation in higher than where they roost and secure the holes with 1/2 inch hardware cloth
• Make your coop and your run with a door you can walk into.
• Space is very important - the more the better. Make your run big also and the walls 1/2 inch hardware cloth with an apron, and the ceiling solid or with 1/2 inch hardware cloth and covered in some of the run.
• Get chicks that do well for your climate
