Surprising my wife with chickens in Seattle

[BrattishTaz]

Don't forget to direct your wife to BYC after the unveiling of the chicks. We wouldn't want her to miss out on all the fun here.

Welcome to the world of chickens. I agree that Silkies do fine here in Western Washington. The freezing isn't much of a problem here for chickens. Some will put in heat lamps for the birds, but they don't really need it if you have a good coop for them. The bigger problem here is the rain. We finally put a roof over most of our run. The hens definitely seem to prefer to hand out under the cover rather than in the rain.

Please feel free to join the Washington group on the the state thread.
