Chicken Coops for Sale in Kansas City KS: Commonly Asked Questions
What breed of chickens are best suited for backyard environments?
If you’re thinking about growing your flock and gathering your own eggs, there are plenty of great chicken breeds for you to choose from. Some potential egg-laying breeds include Rhode Island Reds, Leghorns, Sussex, Australorps, Plymouth Rock, and others. For more details on which breeds excel at laying eggs, read our blog post “Best Egg-laying Chickens.”
How do I protect my chickens from predators?
It can be difficult to know exactly what precautions to take to ensure your coop is guarded against predators. The most important thing to make sure of is that your coop is sturdy enough, especially in areas where predators are prevalent.
In locations like Kansas, predators such as raccoons, coyotes, foxes, weasels, and even domestic dogs can easily break into coops made with weak wire and flimsy wood. If you’re aware of predators in the area, avoid using chicken wire and instead choose stronger materials for your coop. Ensure your coop’s doors have robust latches, properly seal the windows, and raise the coop off the ground to prevent predators from gaining entry.
What should I feed my chickens, and how much?
In addition to their regular feed, chickens can thrive on nutritious greens like lettuce, kale, and turnip greens. They may also appreciate occasional treats like watermelon, strawberries, and blueberries, but it’s important not to overindulge them.
A laying hen consumes about a quarter pound of feed daily, up to approximately one and a half pounds per week. However, this amount can vary depending on the size or breed of your chickens.
