Morgan...thank you for the tips. I really appreciate it and am not above listening to others advice and learning from their experience. I figured rain boots would be a good idea from you mentioning it before. I know I can find a decent working pair or could do the wal marts or what have you with the colorful ones maybe for the girls.
Nope, no rooster. We pretty much decided on that long ago. I know my neighbor has at least one roo. He had one before but took offense to it attacking his son. I didn't know about the hanging feeders/waterers but that make sense.
I store my dogs food in a trash can (brand new one) inside so may have thought of that for chicken feed but now thanks to you I can buy one and have it ready for when I need it instead of buying one after when I'd think of it. I will probably buy chicken feed at Agri Supply. That's where I buy Thumper's bedding, other occasional items and I know they sell feed and crumbles. Along with egg cartons and stuff.
I actually have some of the same horse fencing that we bought for use in our garden and have some extra left. I have some fir strips that would work for the frame so I would just need some chicken wire. So for how long do you use the juvenile chicken coop before just letting them out into the big coop?
