    golden comet walking wobbly

    golden commet hens pecking at eachother

    i have a coop with a run attached to it so they can go in and out as they please. It is to the size of the requirements for the number of chickens I have. I have a light that is on a timer to come on in the coop for extra hours of light they need for laying. It is just a light bulb 13 watts.
