Many of you have been following my threads:

My girls seem to like their new home:
and thanks to so many of you, I have survived. But my question is this:
What do I do now? Are there more vaccinations? (they received the MRK from the hatchery and I feed them Manna's Medicated Chick Starter) When will I know if I have any roosters in my flock? Should my 4-week old chicks beginning their "pecking" order behavior?
I am just wanted to make sure that I am prepared for my next steps. I still need to put in a second set of roosts, I need to take the roost planks off my nesting boxes, I guess I need to cover my nesting boxes so they don't go in there yet, I need to take down the last of my fencing that borders the coop below (I plan on getting an automatic door and let them free range everyday). I need to put my siding and gutters up and also put in ventilation on both ends. This is one serious hobby I started.
Thanks for the help...
