Nice coop, may I ask where you purchased and if the enclosed run was part of your purchase? Thank you

Hi there, I just recently hatched some incubated eggs. Did you already candle your eggs between 7/10 days? Did you make your own incubator? Mine pipped and hatched at 23 and 24 days. Mine was a home made incubator. Be patient and best of luck, it was a great process

Hi there, I have 2 newly hatched bantam golden lace Cochins . One of my chicks that is 4 days old today starting bobbing her head back and forth and some time walks in circles. She is eating and drinking, very active and seems to be healthy aside for this lastest thing. Any similar experiences...

Thanks IMP. Mich-so separate the aggressive gal completely? both during the day and the night? during the day - like today, I am home and able to supervise, I let them out in the yard, and my poor little blue is hiding behind bushes and seems to be very careful when she approaches back to there...

Thanks Michigan
