re: Tell me about raising chickens

Good information. I think these are Holland? But if I lose some can I add other breeds with them? Will they get along?

Apparently they have coyotes but claim the electric fence works. How long will a chicken lay eggs and I'm assuming when they stop I make a gumbo? I mean you don't just keep them around do you?

And a question from my wife. How bad do they smell? Not that it matters cause they aren't in my yard but curious. This is interesting.
