    my chickens' weird eye...?

    I am just wondering if anybody else has a chicken whose eye looks "droopy" like this one... and if it effected them in anyway. this chicken looked fine as a chick, but as its maturing, its eye is getting droopier and droopier... Any comments would be appreciated.

    New Chicken Coop is Finished! Pictures.

    the run is infact made from 4 1x4x12's which we dug about 4 feet into the ground (it adds stability) the planks going across the top are 1x4x10's, but i find that the are severely warping due to rain and sun, so I addedtwo little posts in the middle of those to ensure they are not going to warp...

    there is a screen door and a regular door on the front. the blue bin is where i'm keeping their food. ventilation at the top. there is a door that allows access to the run with a lock on it. against the one wall is a hanging feeder, a waterer on blocks, and the roost. 5 nest boxes...

    How much did it cost for you to build your own coop?

    I have 13 chickens, and I made and 8x8x8 coop and a 8x10 run... it was probably close to 700-800$ to buy all my own wood and everything.

    Small run idea

    that seems like a pretty cool idea to me... but then again im new to this whole thing... i guess as long as the holes are small enough so the chiekns cant get their heads stuck! cool idea!

    Tell me your funny chicken stories

    This may not seem funny to the rest of you... But i have 13 cherry egger chicks who are about 4 weeks old. They are in a wire dog cage with a heat lamp on them... And last night one of my chicks jumped up onto the feeder and stood as high as i could and was looking at how it could possibly...
