Here are two more. ----------------------------------------------------------------------

You can't see it from the pics but on the outside wall under the tin roof there is a 4 inch space that goes the entire length of the coop. It is covered with screen to keep stuff out. The door/ramp closes and latches at night. I also made this with a floating floor, I can slide the floor out for...

I just threw this up for a little extra space for these little fuzzies. My neighbor had some extra flooring and I got a couple pallets.

I have a few around 3 months old. It sure is hard to get a good picture, quick little fuzzies. So what do you think hen or roo? I'm thinking this one is a roo. I'll try and get some pics of the rest soon.

I have a hen sitting on 5 eggs ready to hatch any day. I found mites on the eggs. I gave a good look at all the hens and saw no more but they are surely in the nesting box with the eggs. How can I keep them under control until the eggs hatch?

This is Tux my mutt Roo I introduced here a few weeks back. When he was little he was all black with a white chest. That is why we named him Tux. It really is amazing how much they change. Here he was: https://www.backyardchickens.com/image/id/6202010/width/400/flags/LL...

There seems to be more here also this winter. I lost my youngest hen last week. The rest of the flock seemed pretty freaked out and did not leave the coop for two days after.

I think 200 is too much. I built mine for around 125 in materials from Lowes. Maybe put an add in your local paper for a handy man/carpenter. There are lots of people out of work right now that would jump at the chance to make some extra cash.A good handy man could build you one I'm sure in a...

I guess anything is possible. My Silkies as well as my other Bantam hens came out of a bin of mixed bantams from Tractor Supply. Having seen other silkies mine do look a bit different there is no telling what the mix might have been.

I also have Mille Fleur and do several hatches a year for sale locally. I am in south Central Kentucky.

I lost a hen last week. Most likely a Hawk. Something scattered my flock I found my Rooster and one hen a block away. Looked and looked but was still two short. One must have had a good hiding place and returned the next day. The youngest hen did not make it. Looks like I need to hatch out some...

Quote: Well you can never really tell I guess but I only have two black hens and they are Silkies. Why else would he have black skin and 5 toes? Here are the parents I think anyway.

Here are my Millie friends Jerry my roo and a couple of his girls. I had 4 hens but two vanished the day after Christmas. I found my roo and one hen a block away but two still gone we looked all over. The next day one came home but we lost one.

My Mutt Rooster his father is a Millie and his mother is a Black Silkie. He has some of each in him for sure. Five toes and Black skin like his Mother and giant feathered feet and vulture hawks like his dad
