    Is this too much ventilation?

    I think you're good. My chicks were just getting their feathers in last fall when they went into their new coop, so I kept it pretty closed off last winter with a heat lamp. Now they are fully grown, I have a 2x2 vent in the peak that I will leave open. I installed a solar fan in that vent...

    Hello! I'm Rich (by name only)

    Yeah, I'm a little worried about taking her back to the flock. I hope they will accept her back and not peck at her again. Any suggestions would be appreciated. While I can handle her enough, she's not super thrilled to be touched or held. It's unfortunate that I was too busy building their...
