My girlfriend and I have done a lot of research on having chickens. I've worked on horse farms with chickens some years back, so we decided it was time to raise our own.
Bought a coop today, and building the accompanying wire run this week.
Like I said, I've tended chickens before, but I've never raised them. Anyone have any good advice for a beginning chicken farmer. We're going to raise them from chicks for egg production only. No roos.
Preferred egg breeds? Certain chicken feeds that you recommend? Other advice you have.... ?
Thanks for the suggestions.
