All will be well, and that will be well is well.
They will eventually want to roost on the tallest thing they can reach. Mine roost on the coop roof mostly. Not a pretty picture after they’ve been sitting up there all night. It will eventually make it easier to collect poop for compost, I guess... It’s a metal roof so it slides off once it dries.I can’t wait until mine starts laying!
Here they are from this morning.Belle is so hard to get a pic of she just keeps eating she followed me all the way to the gate tho and did a bunch of little squawks I wonder what she was saying hehe.
I also am making my way through the posts but I had a question. Do they absolutely NEED roosts. I don’t have any in their coop. Wilson jumped on top of the fence once but it was before Belle was there and it was getting dark and I think he got nervous I wasn’t coming. I read the females roost more. I am planning on building one but I just wanted to wait until the snow melts and I can find some trees easily without digging lol.
