How can you tell where I actually am by my location? lol. Our property line is basically the zip code line as well. Just let me know when you want to come get them.

well, I ended up swapping two roos today for two hens from the lady that sold me the roos (they were suppose to be hens) So, for now I think im good, unless one of my hens grows a red comb overnight!!!

oh i need advice on something.... with all this rain my hens arent able to take dust baths and its just so yuck in the run right now. I was thinking of creating a dry space for them that they can still take dust baths even if its wet.
Do you think if I used the cat box pictured below, and filled with DE, SEVEN dust and river sand, do you think they would get in there and use it???

would this just be more trouble than its worth? thoughts from the masses please!!!

They don't need to do dust baths everyday. They will be fine til it dries out. We don't provide ours with any sheltered indoor bath houses.

it does sound pretty high maintenance when you put it that way, lol!!!

Congrats! It's agony waiting on one to start laying. How big are the Cornish Rock eggs? What color?

All of the eggs to this point are tan to dark brown.

I have 6 silkie chicks and some eggs that I need someone to get. I'm going out of town this weekend. The chicks are less than a week old. I live in Lincoln County! Help!
