I am new to the forum, but have been checking out the coop designs on this site. We found a 6x12 shed on Craigs List and are now starting work changing it over to a coop. I would welcome any advice on the changes we need to make, run design and chicken breeds. I would especially love to hear from fellow owners in the Las Vegas area because of our special weather conditions. I am looking forward to owning chickens for eggs and as pets. I would like to start with 8 and eventually add more later on to total 12 which won't include a rooster.
Specific questions I have are 1) What special improvements did you make to your coop to accomodate Las Vegas weather conditions 2) What are your thoughts of starting with chicks vs. slightly older birds 3) What breeds do good in the Las Vegas area
Thanks for any advice and looking forward to learning from all the forum members!
