I don't know if I've ever posted here, been a member for awhile I think. We don't have any chickens yet. I want to build a small coop, but don't really know where to start. It needs to be really cheap & easy to build. We don't want alot of chickens, just a few for pets and a few eggs, and maybe for my son who gets to join 4-H next year. I was thinking bantam's maybe because they're cute. Anyway, I have a few questions.
If we build a chicken tractor, do they live in that all the time? on the ground?
Should we put chicken wire on the bottom of it too, to keep predators from getting in?
When we get chicks, when do we know it's time to put them outside?
Thanks,
Jamie
