Hey there--
My name is Jackie and my hubby is Justin. We are new to this WHOLE thing and it has been lovely!! Our chicks are almost 7 months now, we got them on day 2 We currently have 5 Buff Orps and LOVE them dearly!!!! We are in Tampa, FL and have some BASIC questions for whoever can help:
1. Best ways to keep them cool?
2. What to do about a pre-fab coop we bought that is A TOTAL POS!!!!! We made some modifications to make it functional (more ventilation/added a HUGE run/etc). My hubby is VERY HANDY and loves his girls so he is always looking for ways to improve it. They love the nesting boxes, and use them well.
3. Should we expand the small coop or just create a roosting spot seperate from the (pre-fab coop with the nesting boxes?!?)
4. What are your fave feeders/waterers?
Thanks for the info
Jackie
