Thank you! The suspense has been killing us, lol. She has a bff that I'm not sure about, but I couldn't get a good pic of that one. I will keep trying.

9 week old lavender orpington, pullet??

Hmmm, its hard to tell from the picture, I think it might look a little high. You could put the nesting boxes on one side and the roosting bar on the other. As long as the nesting boxes you build have covers, I guess it would be ok to put them under the roosting bar. You would want them...

Wow, that's a lot of hay, is it for the chickens or the goat? The chickens will need small nesting boxes to lay eggs in and a bar to roost on. Sasafrass trunks make good roosting bars, and help keep mites away. Also ramps are fine for them to go in and out. Good luck!

Is it too early to tell? Pullet or roo?

I would think there mama would protect them from the other hens, I have 4 week old babies that my hen hatched and the other hens just leave them alone because "Big Mama" is sooo protective. I think at this point they should be okay, do the other hens go after them?
