Hi PrettyGirl! Thanks for readiing, I hope you continue to even though I am a little slack on the updates! We are not using pallets to make it, but I know a lot of people do. One deciding factor was when I learned pallets are bad for chickens, you may be able to incorporate them into toys or use...

Put a chicken wire divider in the coop,Bitsy and 'her chicks' stay in there. A nice neighbor gave us an old wire cage and I patched it up with some chicken wire. Now Bitsy can enjoy some sun and grass outside. Bitsy is really wanting her friends, she might be able to go with them tonight, have...
Saw some blood clots today. :( All the big chicks are sick except Bitsy. I put the little chicks into the 3 tote brooder, along with Bitsy. They love it in there. (Bitsy would rather be outside). The treatmant we are doing is ACV, totally strip and clean the coop, and we are using Essential Oils

The chickies needed some help finding their coop tonight. They were roosting on some plastic containers in the yard.. lol. I chased them away and was like 'you can't roost there!'
I let them get a bedtime drink and 'snack', then I put them on the roosts, and they stayed there, but they got onto...
Today I was at my 1 year old cousin's birthday party.. Soo I am going to try and work on the coop some before darkness falls, but the chicks are good.. Maybe going to a poultry swap tommorow..
