    Please show me your hot weather coops

    I really like it. I lived in NOLA for a while and it gets unbearable there as well. Florida isn't any better lol.

    Please show me your hot weather coops

    Just wanted to revive this thread to see if anyone had any new hot weather coops they wanted to share. It's been a few years since the last post, and many years since the thread's inception, and many of the photos are no longer available. So who has a hot weather coop they want to share?

    FLORIDA!!!!!ALWAYS SUNNY SIDE UP!!!

    The ones in which you're not allowed to keep backyard chickens unless you live in a rural/ag zoned area. It's my understanding that laying hens aren't even allowed here in suburbia, let alone a rooster lol. ETA My post is specifically regarding Pasco County Florida, not Florida in general.

    FLORIDA!!!!!ALWAYS SUNNY SIDE UP!!!

    I just recently moved back to Pasco County, FL from overseas, and I know there were people who "were working on" trying to get the laws changed, and I was curious if anyone knows anything.

    Wondering about the meat of the Jersey Giants

    Personally I say just go with the Cornish X. It's the meat everyone is used to, with the breast size we all want. They don't take long to grow out, and once you figure out how to work them, or you heed the advice of others who already have, you won't have the horror stories you read about them...

    Ameraucana thread for posting pictures and discussing our birds

    Thanks so much. They look beautiful. They aren't what I expected, so I'm pleasantly surprised. I'm not such a fan of splash in the B/B/S type, so I didn't have much hope this would be an attractive bird to me, but it was. That rooster is a handsome fella huh? lol

    Ameraucana thread for posting pictures and discussing our birds

    Thanks, oddly enough those are the pics that show up on google images, but they're pullets, and I want to see adults. Thanks though

    Ameraucana thread for posting pictures and discussing our birds

    Thanks, I went to her FB and looked through the pics, but none were labeled Splash Wheaten only Wheaten or Blue Wheaten. I don't know why this particular bird is so darn elusive for me, but it is. LOL. I left a message on her page asking if she'd show me what they look like. I guess we'll see...

    Multiple Shades of Green Eggs

    ETA I am also immediately flanked by farm fields but prefer to drive it down the road just to not attract predators or even carrion eaters to my property. I hear ya there!!! No sense in bringing them round your house to eat lol.

    Multiple Shades of Green Eggs

    Lol that's funny. I'm not into wings, legs, or thighs. My husband eats them though so nothing goes to waste. The snake idea is a good one. I don't know anyone with snakes, but when the time comes I sure could look for someone(s) with snakes, and let them have them. It's certainly better for...

    Multiple Shades of Green Eggs

    Thanks :) and no about the sex links for meat. They'd be culled at hatch. I know that's not a very pretty aspect of breeding birds, but it is what it is. I don't want to feed more mouths than necessary for any longer than necessary. I like cornish cross for meat. They finish quicker, and I like...

    Ameraucana thread for posting pictures and discussing our birds

    Can someone please post a picture of an Adult Splash Wheaten? I've seen Wheaten, I've seen Blue Wheaten, but to my knowledge I haven't seen Splash, and I tried looking at google images, and the only thing clearly labeled as "Splash Wheaten" that I could find, was a pullet. I want to see them...

    Multiple Shades of Green Eggs

    Well you're right about that lol It will still be a lot of chicks to grow out in the F2, but not nearly as many as I would have to grow out if I used a Marans for the F1 lol So other than the lots of chicks problem lol, my logic is sound though right?
