I will change the roosting bars and see how it plays out. My only thought about rehoming her, is that another bird could become just as dominant. I'll try separating her first. Thank you!!!
My girls are a little over a year old. 7 of the 8 have bare butts, and backs. One has all her feathers (top hen in pecking order) This has been going on for a few months. (No rooster in the house, girls only club) 1 of the 8 is a complete hot mess, feathers missing all over. They are eating...
I live in Midwest MN ( an hour from Fargo ND) and am building a 4x6 coop. Should I insulate? I will also have electricity, what type of heating element should I get? I want to stay away from heat lamps.
I am new to the chicken world and am absorbing all the information I can. We are currently building our coop. We won't get chickens until the spring, I want to have everything ready and all the info I can I need before we get our girls.
Question on the coop..........
We live in west central MN...
