    Keeping chickens warm

    If you have electricity in the coop, which you do. Buy a heated dog water bowl. They hold between a gallon to a gallon and half of water. Depending on how many chickens you have you may need more than one.

I figured.....what the heck I’ll give them a try, that was the beginning of my serious case of Morehens disease 😁. I just love beautiful my beautiful birds.

    Chicken Breed Focus - Maline

    The last Malines chicks I received were either dark gray to almost black, those were the hens. The lighter gray chicks are usually roos. Not sure who Big R is. Malines breeders in the states are few and far between. Hope this helps
