Thinking of getting four or five chickens. I've got the space to be able to free range them but first up I'd need a decent run so the cat could be normalised to them (don't want them taken out by the other farmyard animals at least).
I've been reading my Haynes Chicken Manual and obsessing over different types and styles of chicken coops - I want one I'm able to move relatively easily so I can house it in different places. Maybe an auto door-opener so if I combine it with a decent run then if I decide to fuck off for a few days I won't have to worry about sorting out someone to come down / let them out / feed etc.
Anyone ever kept them?
Got any tips / advice so I don't make spectacular mistakes?
