I've just ordered a Maggie's Hen House and coop and it's coming in a couple of weeks. I am really excited and making plans so I can get all organised.
I've got a couple of questions:
Someone mentioned varnishing the inside of a chicken coop before assembling to help with cleaning. What's the best thing to do it with?
Where do you buy most of your supplies from? I've started a list and it's quite long...
Do you keep feed etc in a dustbin with secure lid? I was thinking of storing all our chicken stuff in the garage (which is a little bit of walk to the chickens, but I need the steps...). We're keen to keep rats out of there, so any tips appreciated.
Is there anything you'd do / do differently if you were starting out?
Thank you. (wishing there was a chicken emoji...)
