I'm new to this all and want to start raising a couple of hens! I found this site very helpful so far. I can't wait to get started and want to build my own coup. I have a friend who built his own cage with wheels so he can move it around on fresh grass and it keeps the wild predators out a night. I would love to see other peoples ideas as well. So I'm here doing all my research first. Just can't wait until the snow melts!!!!

We're glad to have you.

To see lots of coop designs, I suggest looking at the Coops section: Coop Designs

So glad you joined us.

If you have room for more than 2, I would suggest getting 4-5. Especially if you plan to get baby chicks, many folks do end up with a roo or 2 in the mix. Chickens are happier in groups and happy hens lay tasty eggs. Good luck with the adventure.

I would definitely check out the coops section, which Wyandottes7 gave you a link to. The Learning Center is an informative place to look at, too.

Also, feel free to ask any specific questions that you have! I and other members would be glad to help as well as we can.
