Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

oh no! I would never buy it new! It's used and cheaper than I can buy the wire that comes on it.

I love the little one that I have as a grow-out coop. Teaches them to go inside at night, use the ladder, etc. They are great for a few small birds, but for full-size chickens.... not so much! lol

Also I would recommend covering it. They don't stand up to the weather all that great.
 
Got no answers from another thread, so somebody help me out..

Question!

I bought a large indoor rabbit cage to brood my tiny serama chicks in. It was one of those kits, that came with supplies. Since I don't have rabbits, I don't need all that stuff, but it came in the box. Is there any of it that I "can" use for chickens?

I'm sure the bedding is a no-no, its that expandable stuff. Timothy hay, is that stuff bad for chickens? A small bag of rabbit feed, and a treat stick.... banana berry. I'm thinking the chicks would like the treat stick.

Feed stick is probably fine, but might be best for them to give the other stuff away.

Could toss the hay in the run for the bigger birds to scratch through.
