I should have our first coop ready in a week or two, and I'm thinking of starting out with 3 or 4 hens. My primary desire is to have good egg layers, not meat chickens. No roo's since we live in a suburban neighborhood. My question is, should I start off with grown egg layers or should I buy little peepers and get them acclimated and just wait for eggs for sometime in the spring? What are the pro's and con's of starting with established birds vs. starting with young'uns?
