Early March I stood in the feed storen sleep depraived after night shift.. and fell in love with 3 lil fuzzy chicks. I get to the register and the manager tells me I can have 3 more for free if I would like because they were getting a bunch more in later that morning. Fast forward 2 months. I now have a chicken addiction. I've got 21! (And so not buying any more!) With that said, the coop I bought will only hold approx 10 full sized birds. (Its one of those prefabs that estimates more than 10 though I woyld not put more than that!).. anyway, now I am having trouble figuring out what size coop, what material (metal shed? Plastic shed?), how much ventilation etc I will need. I live in North Central Arkansas right by the MO border. Someone, anyone... help! Lol
