Sorry I should of mentioned it's summer I'm in the south west of Australia so high 30s Celsius most days. They arnt laying yet they are only 3 months old
When moving chickens to a new coup how do I go about it the old one is only 20meters away I can lock them out of old one.
Do I just lock them in new one for a day or two or will they work it out after the first night once they see old coup locked.
Cheers 🐔
They did all start inside the coop then I installed some high outside roosts and they never went back haha. I'll definitely install some hinged windows that's great idea where I can shut them at night when cooler cheers
We live in Australia wheatbelt so winters rarely hit anything under 1 or 2 degrees over night and summer average about 35 degrees. I wad thinking the wall vents and maybe a whirly bird on the roof wpuld suffice currently the chickens roost outside there current coup even when raining only 2 or 3...
Hi all thanks for the add.
Just looking for advice I've had chickens for just over 2 years now and looking to expand to hatching chick's instead of just eggs. We have a coup alrdy but the inaccessibility to the inside makes it hard to keep clean and in winter turns into a mud pit. I'm thinking...
Hens go broody when you don’t want them to… and won’t go broody when you do.
