Raising Chickens

Ex gf and I let her daughter raise some. Bought them as chicks for about 0.25 apiece. She raised them in her room with a heat lamp till they were old enough to go outside. We built a makeshift coop and were able to keep varmints away for the most part. One thing I didnt see mentioned here is the cleanup. Pretty much has to be done daily as gravity dictates their **** will hit the ground and they will eat it.
Stupid fecal eating chickens. Im thinking of doing it again once Lori n I get situated

saves on the feed bill!!!!! adds protein to the eggs!? ours free range, they poop and look for another bit of grass, weeds, bugs, whatever a stupid bird etas!!? LOL

the pen that is moved around in the yard would solve lots of problems, they fertile the grass, graze, and you move them along.

the poo stacks up under the roosts in the coop, clean it once a year, but we live in the country! LOL
