    I bought my chicks and hens thinking our new coop would arrive sooner than it did. But we got busy building a tractor and had two humungous totes we used for brooders. That took care of things temporarily. Within a week, I knew the chicks were outgrowing their brooder boxes. Yikes! So I got busy...

    Who layed this egg?

    I have three age groups. The oldest group are Black Sex Links and all lay brown eggs. I have an Easter Egger in that group, and she lays an off white egg. The 'teenagers' group consists of 2 barred rock, one columbian wyandotte, 2 New Hampshire, and the rest are Rhode Island Reds. These two...

    Problems with New Run Need Advice Please!?

    I never thought of attaching to the building---that's a great idea! In the pic, the long side is next to coop, so the short side is in the center of the pic. I'm thinking it's going to be expensive to cover the whole thing. But from what I've read in the forums, it'll be a cost we won't regret.

    Sorry about your loss, but glad the other two are okay. I didn't know about their sight. I had gotten mine when they were older. Learn something new everyday! Good luck with your new babies!

    This Coop is Turning into a Behemoth! **UPDATED pics on pg7**

    Coming along very nicely! Do you travel? I could use your carpentry skills! lol I especially like the plywood idea to hold the bedding in. Our babies can be very messy!

    First Time Hatch Results!

    First time ever incubating/hatching. First time candling. Home made incubator (which was the pits, by the way) as I put it together too fast and should have tweaked it more. I learned a lot though. What works, what doesn't, and what could be better or things I hadn't thought about. I started...
