    Not moving and weak :(

    So 2 of 3 of my BO are acting different this morning. One never left the roost. They usually hop down and run around for a minute while I get them some food. The other was already on the floor (1/4 stone sand mix packed) with her head streached out. Her wings were open a little also. I...

    one of my girls decided to stay in her nesting box.

    So I hatched some memorial day birds, and a week later I bought some more that were 6 weeks. Now that only puts her around 15 weeks. Tonight she is in the nesting box. Either the rooster moved the BR up a notch or she getting ready. What do u think?

    First it was a hawk every 3 days taking 1 or 2 depending on size. I fixed that problem with a net covering. Then something took 5 in 2 days, so I rebuild the whole run with fencing on the ground altogether with zipties,wire,and staples. I chicken wired the windows. There didn't appear to be...
