Who keeps Chickens? how many and in what?...

I've been thinking about this also - matey is building a coop for me as I speak:yess:

the site I've been looking at (to buy) is happy chicks.....


Ex Battery Hens : Chickens for sale, ducks for sale, geese for sale, chicken house, coops for sale, duck house for sale, preston, manchester, northwest, lancashire Happy Chicks

I shall be coming here for advice also:WINK1:

 

Thanks guyz n girls, some very usefull info, thank you all its time to root through my odds n ends of wood, and get out the power tools I've got some old chicken wire that will do to make a chicken door for the coal shed, and Mr Fox wont be coming through there as he'll first have to come through an external door.

Going to get the local weekly rag and see whats for sale, chook wise


Many thanks, Plant Potty.

 

Something I've always been meaning to try is a plastic strip curtain in front of an open plan nest box, which is 'supposed' to reduce the hen's desire to head for the furthest, darkest, corner.
