Welcome Saltiena,
You are in the right place. I have learned so much since I found this site.

I would start by hiting the home page and going to the learning center. Read everything there. It covers basic care, coops, diseases, and preditors pretty well. Then ask any questions you didn't get from there.

Oh, and post pics of your coop setup inCoop Design and Construction and ask for opinions/advice.

What kind of chickies are you getting?

BTW I am sooooo jelouse. I want to move to the country and buy an old farm house.

there are quiet a few things youll need for the chicks when they get there.youll need a brooder.an a heat lamp to keep chicks warm.water an feeder along with chick starter feed.you have a good start since you already have to coop on the
