My wife took some of their crumble and added some warm water to mix it with. It became like the consistency of baby poop, but the chickens don't really seem very interested. What consistency has worked for you all? Did we make it wrong? Should we make the mash in some other way?
We were wondering if it's OK to let our chickens run around in the snow just because of our concern for their feet freezing. We are relatively new to chicken rustling, so we'd appreciate your direction! Thanks!! :)
We actually got down to -3 last night, and -12 is on tap for tonight. That is very unusual for this part of Tennessee. I did enclose the coop pretty well, but I'm going to go put up another wind shield to prevent a draft. They have great ventilation, but I don't want a draft going through there...
