1. if you want a coop where you can collect eggs from them, youd need to get one with the hen boxes in it [its easier to collect]. they should become accustomed to laying in the boxes. youll most likely need a coop with a perch for them. you can find different coop designs on google images & what not.also, make sure they have some hay or bedding in the coop because its easier to clean. as far as table scraps - i give mine left over corn / corn on the cob, left over egg shells (it makes their eggs shells thicker & not to mention they LOVE to eat eggs, weird i know) but really anything basic that youd think a chicken would enjoy eating. but they still need cracked corn / chicken feed. theyll peck & scratch at the ground also to eat bugs. training tips : really arent any. just pet them & socialize them with humans in order to make them more friendly. other than that - i guess those are the basics ! good luck & enjoy them !!
