    coop bedding- what do you prefer??

    We use sand. I scoop it out twice a day, and it takes about 3 minutes tops. I just installed a poop board, and I think that will cut down my time to about 1 minute. Whatever substrate you use in your coop, a poop board is worth the while!!!

    Ahhh! No wonder he is so darn pretty! Thank you, D! I tell you, we have the nicest cockerels from Delisha! Like, above and beyond sweet. Elsa, the splash mentioned, is so sweet @jbher, that's Jen, can't even rename him. He's our sensitive guy. I SO want to find a home for them all!

    Minnesota!

    And we had to pay $50 for the permit :( We were thinking $15, but honestly at this point we just need them to go to a good home. We'd let them go for free if that was the case. We can't have them, and lord help us when they start to attempt to crow. Thanks for helping out!!!!!

    I wrote Delisha, so I'll post details when I know. He really is gorgeous.

    Minnesota!

    Yeah, we had to turn in detailed coop and run plans. Then the city coordinator came out and inspected it. Lots of hoops. But it was a fierce debate, and I'm feeling fortunate we passed the ordinance at all. You know how it is, those nasty trouble making chickens!!

    Minnesota!

    Hi! I'm not officially a Minnesotan anymore, but spend quite a bit of time in MN. I was raised in the cities, but my family all lives in a Fergus Falls now. I live in a Hudson now, just a hop over the St. Croix. I just got my coop up and inspected this week, and am now the proud mama to 5 hens...

    I'm finally able to say I'm a cheesehead chicken owner! We finished our coop and had the city inspection this week. I'm so excited to have the girls out of the house and in their new home! Here's a pic of my sweet Sabine, a salmon Favorelle, checking out the nesting boxes I am also looking...

    If only I could have 8 hens. Or 10. Maybe 20? I do love Swedish Flower Hens. So pretty!

    Well....... As of right now I have 1 4-week old Salmon favorelle pullet, who is the sweetest thing. I also have 4 english orps from Delisha; so far we are thinking all cockerels :( one is dark with silvery cuckoo barring, two are GL, and one is a GL but is very very light. These, by the way...
