The coop is a run and coop together was a kit so to say, it has a open door to enter the coop from the run, just guessing and looking its all together 6x3 I am looking at adding a outside run it will be 6x8 and about 3 feet tall. I have 5 in my flock, I think 3 are RIR I have a canary yellow one...

Well my flock has been together since they were chicks have grown up together, this didn't start till just recently but there has been some cold snaps and this weekend got our first snow of the winter, I live in central Oklahoma so the weather can be goofy at times but this summer they did fine...

I noticed on one of my hens she had a spot pecked at on her back at the tail feathers, thought just been fighting for order, went out a couple days later to check and tend to them and noticed that now it was pecked down to the bone, so I removed this hen to inside in a giant wire dog crate...

Thats good to know, I know use to you could get colored dyed chicks for easter will did this once, and ended up with a rooster when we found he was mean and would chase us and try to claw us. And so far our TSC chickens are doing great and have gotten big, and love to talk to you when you go...

Well like they say "kindness kills".

Really any chemical not used as directed is a violation of federal law, its states this on all chemical packaging, even bleach I think.

If you raised pigeons you could do that lol. Wonder what they would do if you played a recorded rooster non stop for hours on end.

Turn the water sprinkler on the moth balls so it dissolves them, if let in a dry area mothballs can last up to a year. WHy your at it flood there yard out.

Why I mentioned long ago about the cease and disist letter thats been wrote by a lawyer and has been handed to them like a summons and signed to know they got the letter that can be added to the documents that you had this said letter drawn up and they read the letter. Even get a copies of...

I have a cream colored one just like the last pic, but she is a sweetie loves to be held, likes to be petted and will come right up to you. Most the others will come up to you mostly to pull at the fresh grass right outside the door but do fuss a little when picking them up but settle down, all...

Are they all huddled together under the light sign they are cold, can move the light closer if you can puts the heat closer to them.

Looks ok to me, mine were spread out like that once I got the heat seat right with the light, I would also reach in and pick up and touch a couple of them to feel how warm they were. I am also a newbie to this but from I have read they look good and comfy. I added a small bird perch high enough...

Mine are older than 3 weeks, have gotten big and do get loud sometimes sounds like they are arguing with each other and I run in there to check on them, they do like to chirp and make noise but over all seen fine, on nice warm days we put them out side but been kinda cold here in the 60's, but...

You can also by using the 2x4 under the legs and get good round sticks and put one down, go back about 8 inches put another, keep this going, then put a couple out in front, and with a little shove the coop will roll across the round sticks when one spits out the back put it back up front, to...

What about putting a electric fence on yours so if he tries to cross over pop, nothing too harsh just a good reminder he is tresspassing, but might make matters worse. Its best to let the law take place, if you have everything in order according to the plans let the judge see it and laugh them...
