I just need to get hold of my friend to see when she is firing up her incubator. Sadly, I lost my broody hen in December but she had to have been at least 8 or older. But I am planning on setting my RIR eggs as usual and perhaps some silky eggs too.

That's a nice coop! Mine is just built into the barn with the (broken) run sticking out about 8'. But it's 42' by 10' inside. So in all, my coop is a 50' by 10' ft. coop for my chickens. Just gotta clean it and put down fresh shavings DLM style after I get out of college for Christmas break.

And this is going to be done, whether my father wants to or not. I am sick of seeing raccoons on top of the run trying to get at my chickens from that window. It scares me. I've poked more coons than I care to count in the past year with my long stick, knocked it down, and they barely got away...

Yes!!! Exactly like that so that when it rains and snows, the solid roof sheds it off instead of letting it get into my run, and soaking the sand I'm going to put down on the ground. Only thing is it's going to be a bit steeper because it is going to be attached to the barn over the window of...

Hey everyone. Been SUPER busy with college these past few months that I haven't been able to get on here. Which I totally missed being on BYC. Anyway, earlier this summer, my father had a man come over with a chainsaw to cut some trees down. He sure wasn't that good at it as one of those...

Oh, guess I put this in the wrong forum!!!!

But there has to be other people who have tried and liked fermented feed for their chickens on this entire forum.

Anyone?

Have you ever tried fermenting your chickens feed? I have and they LOVE it!!!! Within 10 minutes; their feed dishes are empty. Tell me what you think of it. Whether you liked it or not. Or if you haven't tried it yet but want too. -Heidizzybean *as she is known to her college friends*
