    will be keeping chickens in back country...neighbor reports weasel?

    Chicken wire under the run too. This should keep weasel out. Make sure coup n run r buttoned up tight. No worries

    To heat or not to heat

    Thanks it is cold n dry here. The person I got the chickens from heated the coop. I am going to build a new insulated coop next summer with a heated floor. It is going to be a five star coop

    To heat or not to heat

    I have 6 chickens. Do I need to heat the coop with a lamp. I am heating it now. It is going to be 29 degrees tonight. How else could I heat the coop.

    intergration and free range

    I intergrated 4 new chicks to 3 old chickens last night. The chicks are 7 weeks old. They are in a coop with a run. The newbies do not seem like they are part of the flock yet. How long should I wait until I release tham to free range the yard? I am guessing about a week.
