Chickens are one of the easist anmials to take care of, there's a little involved when there chicks, keep heat on them, if the power goes out you could have a problem ect, I got these ones a little over a month ago, I start them in my lawn shed in a 100 gallon old stock tank from the horse farm that froze and split.

I think the most I had at one time was 35 or 40 hens, I could sell the eggs as fast as they were laid.
