    Speckled Sussex sounds like she’s “knocking on the door”???!!

    My husband and I were at the coop, feeding and petting all the chickens. I thought he was tapping on the wood, like knocking on a door, three rapid taps. He said he wasn’t. We realized one of our Speckled Sussex was making the noise! I’ve tried to research it, but can’t find anything. The only...

    Looking for a home! Meet Bob Ross-French Crevecoeur Rooster

    I have a 6wk old rooster and can’t have him in town! This breed is supposed to be a rare breed. So sad! He’s already full of personality! They’re supposed to be really laidback, not aggressive! Looking for a good home for him. I live in the Florida Panhandle. Hoping to find someone local. If...

    Looking to buy Black Copper Maran roosters

    Coop calculations with run

    So, a 6x6 coop with extended nesting box(not taking up coop room) would be ok for 6-8 chickens? Considered a 4x6 with nesting box on the outside, but wasn’t sure if that was too small.

    Coop calculations with run

    I’m getting ready to start my coop. I’ve seen many posts on the size needed, but I’m still a little confused. I plan on adding a run that’s 16’. Chickens will only be in coop at night. My confusion is, the calcuations I see are for coop and run or coop alone? What size should it be for 6-8...
