Well we picked up the chickens this morning from my friend. I wanted 4 hens and a rooster, but my wife wanted more, so we ended up with 6 hens and 1 rooster haha! At least we have the space. Here’s some pics...

The rooster needs a pedicure and a couple of those hens may benefit from a saddle until they molt this fall.

Welcome to BYC! Real nice setup an coop! I have one recommendation, cover the top to keep flying predators out.
