This is our first time doing this but I have noticed many of our friends have been giving us wonderful fresh eggs for a while and it sure seems like a good thing to do. So e just got 3 chicks last week and we are keeping them in the bathroom right now. I think we have 1 leghorn, 1 danish brown leghorn and a Rhode Island. I am looking for maybe 1 more hopefully something a bit more exotic I heard a local place has some bantams and some Barred Rocks so I may pick another up. The 3 we have are really sweet amazing how we can see their feathers mature everyday.
Probably start building the coop this weekend. I had a plan for the coop and I wanted to run one question by. We have an old shed that we would use as a 4th wall for the coop/run. The other sides would be open. Is there much to worry about with having a coop against the wall of a building like that?
Thanks in advance.
