Hi Everybody,

Just wanted to thank all of you who helped me start up this new hobby of mine. I have always wanted to keep chickens but never had the time. This year was the time. Here’s a little retrospective of the last few months of my first flock.

My chicks a few day old

Just switched over to shavings

Everybody seems happy

Mom got her buddy

The chicks at a few weeks old

“You got some food!!??”

The chicks and their first trip outdoors!

Well they were getting big and were going to outgrow their house pretty soon. I needed to start on the coop.

Leveling up the ground

Getting things laid out

“Is it level that way?”

Got the floor down

Ditto

Cue frame up

Plywood was kind of pricey for me. However I’ve sealed and pained the heck out of the wafer board, so we’ll hope it’s good.

Fast forward to this afternoon

The girls were moved out into the coop this past Saturday. They seem to like it, especially outside!!! Love the grass!!! They are 9 and a half weeks old

Jeenies a super nice puppy dog, but she’s not really diggin’ these new yard buds!!

Wow,, I love the progression and the coop and run are great. You can tell the ladies are happy, they look like they are discussing who will roost where!

Nice flock! I love your coop! You did a really good job. I love the roosting levels. Looks like it will be easy to clean. Your ladies look like they like their new place.
