while out working on cleaning and doing chicken chores- you think of tons of other things you could do to improve things while you are there? I feel like I could easily work 24/7 on chicken things.Already the coops are cleaner than my house. I was mucking the duck pen when I thought...

we had a storm last night and one of the broodies got soaked- she sat anyway- but I thought it would be best if the eggs weren't in standing water-humidity is one thing-under water is quite another. So I found a similar nest box and prepared it- moved her and the eggs- all 26 then...
