Laurie Schneider : We are chicken-newbies, my guy and me. Not being handy at all, building the coop and run were way beyond our abilities and caused some anxiety, plus expense we didn't anticipate. Here's the run and chicken house at the start. Later we added a jungle gym.

Six chicks arrived and to our surprise, we adored them way way more than ever imagined. What sweet peepy tiny bundles of fluffiness. We raised them in the house. This is Violet, Salmon Favorelle, and Rosebud, Rhode Island Red. We named them all after flowers and trees.

We arranged a couple of boxes with heat lamps, etc. They outgrew their brooder boxes quickly and took over the entire porch room. Which I spent hours cleaning after they moved outside to the chicken house.
