Hi everybody. After listening to me think out loud about chickens for some time my husband made the fatal error of mentioning he thought it would be fun to build a coop. I attended a 3 hour class at Gale Woods Farm, which is a great farm-park south of the Twin Cities, and finally ordered my 5 Ameraucana(?) chicks and bought the necessaries at fleet farm to keep them alive. As most of you can probably imagine, I dream about the chicks and am like a kid waiting for Christmas! Love the website.
