Wife and I are getting ready to raise our own. I'm clueless, but she raised them in the Philippines and here in America.
Similar boat. Just bought a place so will be getting chickens. Wife raised them when she was young. I think they are quite carefree. Hey s good coop and take out as many predators. I think predators are the biggest obstacle. Feed should be easy enough. Supplement with feed when necessary but they can just live off kitchen scraps. You should be able to tell health by the eggs they are laying. Try to crush up and give them their shells back to increase calcium
