I started noticing my chickens getting swollen eyes and some are gasping for air. It started out with 2 chickens getting swollen eyes and now about 20 of my hens, roosters, and chicks have it. Any idea what the problem is or what I can do?

I build rabbit and poultry laying cages. I build many different sizes. The one I have listed is for a 30 in x 30 in x 18 in tall cage for $30 plus shipping. If you are interested in these or would like to know pricing on other size cages or see pictures, message me and I will get back to you...

Ok ill try that thanks.

I bought some blue australorp hatching eggs a few weeks back that were suppose to hatch on the 10th. The first one didn't hatch until the 11th and the second and third hatched yesterday and now the fourth today. The first two chicks that hatched are fine and in the brooder now. However the third...

Where can you get Diamond V?

I started making my own feed but I don't think I have enough protein. Can someone tell me what my protein percentage is in my feed. I am mixing 40% wheat 30% corn 15% oats and 15% sunflower. I am getting 1200# of feed at a time. I would like to be around 16 or 17% protein. If my protein percent...

How tall are each individual GQF breeding pens?

Quote: How does this stuff work? I am so confused. How do you hook everything up in your coop? What is a raspberry pi? I searched it on google but I don't really understand how everything works.

Yes it is already easier on me than having to walk into three separate coops everyday to feed, water and collect the eggs. And it will be even better now since the coop is big enough so i can get a bobcat in there to clean it out.

Thanks!! There are about 3x12.

We plan on making our own feed out of the crops we harvest so that will cut the expenses down a lot hopefully!

I would tell you but I honestly have no clue. I would have to add it all up.

I have not updated this in a long time but we are almost completely finished with the building. All we have left to do is run the electricity. I also got the chicks on Wednesday. Here is what we have done. This is a feed bin I built This a a wall feeder I made Building the runs This is a...

We got the removable breeding pens built and installed and I also built nesting boxes and roosts that fold away.

https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/794962/need-help-with-large-coop-design#post_11598273 this is the floor plan I started out with. As you can tell I made a few changes

Yes I sort of have a floor plan I can post later. Most of it we just kind of planned it as we built it

Thank you! I am doing them for myself but I would eventually like to start selling chicks over the internet. There will be an outside run but I have not gotten that far yet. I still have to level out the ground before I build the outdoor pen. I originally started out with 25 hens and an 8x8...

We got the roof plywood on and the doors on the inside done before the weekend. We also got one of the double doors done on the ends of the building.

I started building my chicken coop yesterday. We poured concrete on Friday and the building started this week. There is an 8x8 room in the center for feed storage. 4x8 next to it for brooder. On both sides of the feed storage/brooder is two 14x12 pens. The south side will be split into 4...

Thank you guys very much for the ideas! I live on a farm and we have been in the field 24/7 lately so I'm hoping to start building it as soon as we get done in the field. Just trying to get as many ideas as possible before I start building it. Keep them coming!
