New Chickens

We are looking to start again with chickens, we had a couple then that grew to 12 which was too many for the area we have available for them so we have given them to a new home (with 4 acres) and would like to go back to just a couple of back garden chickens.

They will be kept largely in an ark to protect them and also my fruit and veg but they will be moved to fresh grass daily and they can free range in the autumn when there is less for them to destroy. I intend to disinfect the ark inside and out with Jeyes fluid, is there anything else I should be considering before introducing new chooks?

We are near the Surrey/Hampshire border - is there anyone on here that has chooks for sale?

Thanks
Chez

I think the jeyes fluid should do the job as far as any red mite or scaly leg is concerned.
