Newbie - Making Every Mistake In The Book...

[sarahjane2740]

Hi everyone! This is my first post and first chickens!

I have been thinking of getting chickens for a while, and had an old shed converted into a coop. I then had a neighbour offer me 5 hens to get started. I was so excited at getting my chickens, i just let him deliver what he had.

He ended up bringing 3 2week old chicks, 1 welsummer who's about 3 (called Roast, but no she's not being eaten) and another beautiful black rock (called nuggets).

I'll post the problems they have on the right bit

but i think he saw me coming

Im in West Yorkshire, Uk and studying law, but really want to be a farmer
