I posted our coop name last year before we got our coop done, so here it is now :)
Our backyard backs up to a dry creek bed so that's why we chose the name. :D I love all the creative fun names and ideas you've all come up with. I love the hobbit houses!
I've been wanting to put In a sandbox for months but we were just not up to building anything else at this point, after building the coop and run area, whew. So yesterday I was aT Petsmart and saw they had small puppy pools and in PINK! So I picked one up. I filled it with sand and some wood...

My concern wasn't so much how it sounded but that it is so repetitious, even during the night . Her poops aren't as green as my other pullets were but they do have similar chunks. I gave her some scrambled eggs earlier but she only pecked at them a couple times. Her crop is empty and she is very...

Okay here's my shot at the video download. She isn't doing this as much as yesterday, probably about every 5 to 10 min. she isn't doing well at all, does anyone have any ideas of anything I can do for her? I know it isn't curable.
