The thing to keep in mind that like a third of the dimensions are the nesting box, which they shouldn’t be sleeping in. Also, the ventilation didn’t seem like enough, from what I recall.
They’re very small. We ordered one and once we saw it assembled in real life, decided it wasn’t near big enough for our four birds, in spite of its advertising.
Hello. I have a black australorp (12 weeks, I’m pretty sure) and a blue australorp (11 weeks, I’m pretty sure). It strikes me as odd that they’re both the same breed, but feather shapes are so different. The black has such skinny feathers. Please tell me this isn’t indicating that one is a cockerel!
I’ve been asking a neighbor for their grass clippings to give us extra green to offset all the brown. We add water if it seems too dry… We’re new to this volume of composting, but it seems to be working pretty well.
