Are you looking to raise chickens of your own in your own back yard but don't know where to start?  Our backyard chickens starter kit gives you everything you will need to raise a small flock of chickens.

If you already have a chicken coop/shelter and are looking to just get chicks, feed and maintenance materials the basic kit includes:

1 feeder
1 waterer
1 oyster shell container
1 bag of oyster shell
1 50lb bag of my hand mixed chicken feed
1 bale of straw or wood shavings for nesting box
 5 chicks

= $150
 
 
Handmade chicken coops/shelters and accessories can also be purchased if you do not have one or do not plan on constructing your own.

Your handmade chicken coop/shelter will look very similar to the one shown above.  It includes a nesting box area with a lift up lid for easy egg collection.  Roosting perches inside.  A front door with ramp that can be closed and secured for safe sleeping. The top opens up for easy cleaning.  And plenty of room inside for a feeder and waterer.  There is real roofing and the coop is designed and sealed to keep the Colorado elements out so that your ladies stay dry and happy during any storm. The coop also has a built in heat lamp for your ladies in the winter.  There are also handles on either side of the coop so that it can easily be picked up and moved by two people.  Comfortably houses 6 chickens but could house up to 10 if chickens have ample room to run around outside of coop. 

= $500

Don't want to let your chickens have free 100% access to your yard?  We can construct you a chicken run that attaches to our handmade coops. Like the chicken coop, this can easily be picked up and moved by two people. The run is constructed with strong wire mesh, but birds should still be locked inside their coop each night for safety from predators digging under run. Chickens need 8 square feet our outside run to live comfortable.  Our run is 8ft tall x 4ft wide x 16ft long = 512 square feet, which would comfortable house 10 chickens.  
 
= $300
