In the Brooder
Hello all. I'm new to chickens but not to farming and critters. I inherited 80 acres and currently have 18 goats (all bred and expecting any day) and 6 cows (3 calves recently born and 1 to go). I also raise about 20 acres of hay every year. After fighting a losing battle with coyotes, I also got 2 Maremma livestock guard dogs. I bought 6 discounted chickens from TSC with the goal to acclimate the dogs to them. My girlfriend also likes to get some critter to raise from a baby every spring for her kids. This year it is an incubator and ebay eggs. So she has quite a few rare-ish breed eggs inbound. I also just posted a thread about a stock trailer coop.
I don't know how this forum is and I hope it's not offensive, but I fully expect the dogs to play too rough with some of the chickens before I can get them trained. They're currently tied up as they play too rough with the baby goats as well. I'm actively working on their training.
