City Chickens

More and more people who live in cities are finding themselves wanting to revert to a simpler lifestyle. People are wanting less, and recognizing they need to buy less. This is true for many facets of life, but especially for food. City gardens are gaining popularity quickly, and perhaps more surprisingly, so are chicken coops. The popularity of grass-fed, cage-free, local livestock is growing, and many people want to have these options right in their own backyards.

Raising your own chickens isn't the easiest task, so it takes a lot of research and preparation. This list is a really great guide to getting your chicken coop started.
