MMM... tastes like chicken!!! :lau hahaha, sorry, I couldn't resist!! Just BEWARE, if you use Blu Kote, they will most likely go after his toe! And if you get it on your skin, it stains bright purple, and it is tough to get off . Ask me how I know this.... :rolleyes: Super glue would...

Oh dear... poor boy. We had something similar happen. BF stepped on Violet's toe and broke her nail to the point it bled. I put Blu Kote on it, but the other hens went after it like crazy, so I had to separate her by putting her in the intro pen with the teenagers... no one was real crazy...

Ohh, as I said, I know nothing about snakes.. so probably any snake I see, better high tail it outta my space.. lol Cute little steps... my run is still not done.. we have had nothing but rain!!! Ugh. Bf did get the last post set and cemented today between showers. :/

I hear ya Terry! After learning all that, I am right there with ya!!! :hide

Yikes, yeah, I don't blame you then!!!

LOL :yuckyuck

I'm not familiar with any kinds of snakes really... does that kind do harm to chickens?

Awww your chickens look so happy. That's awesome. I can not wait to get mine outside. I was really hoping it'd happen this weekend, but we just had too much to do... But it's getting there... a little bit at a time. Yes, I've also heard that about roos... not to let them become too familiar...

I WANT BCMs! I will have some someday. xD I also want Welsummers. Please keep us posted on your roos temperament. I want a non aggressive one.. if that's possible... Oh fun, an addition already?? hehe How does hubby feel? That's exciting though!

Gosh that's a bummer that you got so many males!! But at least you said you like the Welsummer rooster. :) I can't believe you have one crowing already!! How old are they? I have my 'teenager' group... that includes 5 straight run Silkies, but I won't be keeping a Silkie rooster. And I've...

Nah, it's not as bad as all that. :D I'm a total newbie. And they've been in the intro pen for a while, so that helped. I'm so glad I decided to add that feature. Yes, chickens ARE totally awesome!! We got the post today at Lowe's to finish the run, so Yay! It's so cold and dreary here...

I love your chicken swing! I want to do that too, but my run isn't going to be enclosed at the top right away... and I don't want to give them an advantage to try to fly out! hahaha! I'm so excited to get more done... Bf got a door/gate on the run today.. but he said he has to set another post...

I am just sooo anxious to get mine outside!! It won't be long now I hope. It's been cold and rainy here, so we haven't been doing much outside.. plus I've been working a lot. Boo! I really like the looks of your coop. It's so cute! Mine is ugly right now... that's why I haven't really...

Hmm, I've been reading up on it and have read people have been successful after having them in the coop for only a week or two and others who've left them in the coop for 3 or 4 weeks and still had to chase them down to carry them into the coop. lol :rolleyes: And that would be just my luck!!

Aw geez, yeah, that's exactly what I'm afraid of. lol I'm hoping by leaving them in the coop longer they will know that it's home and will be quicker to come back in. I don't know how long I need to do that though.

Awwww!!! congratulations!! :jumpy Yay! I bet they were sooo happy to get outside and play and just be chickens!!! :D So now you get to relax a little bit, right?? ;) I can't wait to get mine outside! So did yours have any trouble coming back in at dark? That's my main concern. I have my...

@beautifulpirate Very nice set up... I bet you are so excited to get those kids out on some grass! I know I am for mine. :D We are almost finished with the run.. just have to build a gate for us to go in and out of. Still have pop door, ramp, roosts, droppings boards and nesting boxes to...

Very, very nice!!! :D I bet you were just super excited to get them out there. This is night 3, or is it 4?...... Idk.. haha. Of my oldest group being outside. Well, in the coop... and it's not 100% yet either. ALL of the HC isn't up yet... which has me freaking a little bit. But my bf...

I'm an alpha as well! That is so funny that you said it that way... my bf makes fun of me. haha! Because I always have to know what's going on with things. I just... like to know. :P My bf is listening more and more.. it's just a process, right? lol Oi, your weather sounds a lot like...

Oh dear!! Well, go you!!! :bow I wish I had all that wisdom. But even if I did, I doubt my bf would listen to me anyway. Yes, he's one of 'those'. :rolleyes: lol I am also hoping the OSB works out ok. As I said, it really isn't what I wanted to use, but unless we waited several months...
