My coops are a 6ft by 6ft mobile chickshaw. And a 4ft x4ft mini chickshaw from justin Rhodes on YouTube. I have about 50 birds, 2 breeds, id probably split the run in half. One breed on one side, and other on the other side. I'm planning a hatching eggs business so want to keep them separate...

Would love to know if you built this and how is it going

I have a 4ft electric fence now and even with clipping one of there wings the manage to get out... so I bought a 8ft tall roll of wire and 10ft t-post, 10ft tall wooden corner post already. Just deciding how I want to arrange it. I probably will run a strand of electric on the out side close to...

Thanks I had no idea that was the name for it, I'll look for that now

My chickens are free ranged all the time in a mobile coop and get shut in at night. That hasn't been working for us as of lately. We have lost several to wondering dogs and other predators lately. So im considering building an 8ft wide x 8ft tall run all the way around my garden. Which is...

Well, its actually kinda funny but not funny at the same time. I met someone new who, because of covid was trying to get into chickens. She rents in the city and talked her land lord into chickens in the courtyard. So she accidentally bought to many chickens and I had tried to hatch out olive...

Thanks for sharing

Thank you for the advice.

Thank you

I know when you are making a breed of chickens, you breed two chickens together. And then breed together the offspring that have desired traits over and over for 12 generations to stabilize the breed. Is this also true for ducks? I have probably a hair brain idea to breed a blue duck of my own...

Yeah, I've got this one saved on my phone too. But I'm wondering about making blues more bluer and brown's darker.

So theres not a list for each breed and color variety, you just have to preform research to under stand the color genes for each breed. Is what I'm understanding from your response?

Thanks I'll take a watch!
