Newbie here! Hello!

[Say-ruh]

Hi! . We're so glad you're here. And yes we love pics...post away! I would say,if your carpentry skills are lacking, use the shed. Personally I would not buy a pre made one..they are usually too small, way too expensive, and not that well made. If you can build one yourself go for it. That's what we did and not as hard as you would think. But, if I had a shed I could use that would be my first choice....use what ya got.

When I'm able to post pics, should I post them here or start a new thread? Sorry, I'm new to forums

You can post here if you like. But if ya wanna get more ideas and input starting a new thread will bring in more people. It will have a different title and let everyone who searches about coop building and raising new chickens see your post easier. Plus, gets you a bit more familiar with site. Here's a link with lots of info on coop run and design from forum on here https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/byc-coop-section-helpful-thread-index.206328/

Hi!! I'm a newbie too. I'm in Austin TX but grew up in eastern NC. Lived in Raleigh most of my adult life. I've been lurking on BYC for almost 5 months now. I jumped right in and got my girls (hands on learning?). Probably far too uneducated, but we all made it through no worse off You will love it! I only have three but they have been so much fun (even without eggs so far ) I made the mistake of buying a prefab. When it came in I immediately added a larger run. Now I'm building a totally new one that I hope is read by winter. Lesson learned, like everyone is saying, just build your own. :::sigh:::
