I boutht a house which on one acre lot and I would like to put a chicken coop but I don't know where to start. Can any body tell me what will be the first step to do. Thanks
@hernandez152 First build a coop or use an old shed. Make sure it is predator proof. Make sure someone near you sells feed. Buy your waters and feeders. build nest boxes and install them. If you get baby chicks you will need heat lamps and special waterers and feed. You may want a fence that dogs can't get into. Be able to let them go in the morning and lock them in at night. Google "raising chickens" and do a lot of reading for details.
Nice coop , farm fresh eggs taste best allot better than store bought . And the good thing is you know where they came from and who has been gathering the eggs. I raise chickens too!!!!!!!!!!
No, even chickens that have never seen a rooster will sometimes have blood spots. It's from tearing of the "egg duct" as the egg forms before the shell is added. The egg and sperm are invisable to the naked eye. Store bought eggs are scanned by a machine and ejected if any spot is found.

@drahm33 Not a store bought egg. But fresh eggs can sit on the counter for a couple of weeks and still be fresher then ones from the store.

Yes but the chicks wont start to form until a hen sits on it and warms it up to about 103 degrees.

When you crack them open, is there like a little blood spot from where they have been fertilized
