Do any of you fellow kingsnakers raise chickens? My mum and I have been thinking about building a coop and getting 3 or 4 hens. Any suggestions?

We do. I dont eat them, but we have a steady supply of farm fresh eggs.
Chickens are really easy to raise. Your local Tractor Supply Company will have everything you need.

I agree. Keeping chickens is easy once you get all set up, and a lot of fun. And I love the eggs.

I say go for it!
