    What is the best heated water bowl?

    This is my current watering system I built. I want to find a way to continue using it this winter as it is easy to fill since it is outside the coop. I am thinking of using a submersible heater in the bucket and heated pipe tape for the pipe that has the nipples on it. My only worry is the...

    Black Sex Link?

    So I am trying to figure out for sure what breed this is. Bought 2 at TSC as Black Sex Links along with a bunch of other chicks. I lost some when the tornado came through in March and we had no power for days with nights still in the 30's. I have other black chickens but I have these 2 with 5...

    Help with new coop please!

    Wow! That is going to make one heck of a coop. No expert here but if you want to store your food inside I would use the area close to the walk in door. Keep that area free of debris for easy access. Use deep liter method. Plenty of room left for nesting boxes and roost. Looks like it does need...

    Coop done and moved my chicks

    No plans. Just had ideas in my head from looking at other coops and designed it as I built it. Also my nesting box door drops down. Seemed like the ones that the roof lifted would be more likely to leak water in to the nesting box. So mine drops down on the side and has 2 chains to hold it...

    Coop done and moved my chicks

    Finished up the coop for the most part. Still have some small things to do. Still have to put down my 2 foot barrier around the perimeter, build my feeder and my waterer but it is ready for the girls. Turned them out on Monday and they love it.
