All girls! I've had an Australorp roo in a previous flock. He had a red comb and waddles coming in by 6 weeks. Also, my new flock are also six weeks and don't roost at night.
I am currently building our coop. When I had chickens about 6 years ago, I put down a piece of sheet linoleum on the floor and that worked great for clean out. I was in Lowe's yesterday and they no longer sell sheet linoleum, so what is a good alternative to put down on the floor?
Also, we will...
Thanks for your reply! We have plenty of fresh manure. I was wondering if maybe you could use an insulated rubber tire, put the manure in the center with a rubber water bowl on top? Just trying to combine all the options I’ve seen so far.
I just got 6 new chicks about a month ago. I would like to keep them at our pasture where we have our horses, but there is no power. While this is not a problem now, I know their water will freeze during the Utah winter. I’m just trying to be prepared and get some tips and advice. Thanks!
