    Sick Karen- possibly ascites?

    So the vent issues looked like poo stick on the feathers. I’ve been mostly worried about flystike so have been soaking and cleaning as much as I can ands keeping an eye on her. The tail down is what caught my attention today. This is new and so I gave a further look and with the walking funny...

    Sick Karen- possibly ascites?

    I have a sick 1.5 yo golden laced wyondotte… she’s been off for a while and has had an issue with dirty vents since March. I’ve soaked her as needed but it’s never resolved. We had a neighbors pit attack our flock 2 months ago. The 3 other golden weaved Wyandotte’s didn't make it. This one lost...

    Getting chickens into coop at night.

    We had the same issues with our girls. It took about a week of placing them inside before they figured it out. Another week of placing them on the roost and they are close to figuring it out too. It just took consistency. Once 2 went in one night the other 10 followed the following nights.

    I have suspicions about 1 or 2 being a roo… thoughts? They are about 8 weeks old. I tried to get decent pictures but some of the (supposed) ladies didn’t feel photo shoot ready. :)

    Interior coop design

    I think my husbands head would explode if I asked him to remove the floor. The run will be fully roofed and we are planning on having the food and water in the run for a vast majority of the time. If on the occasion that it is frigid (a few days a year) we would bring it inside. We planned on...

    Interior coop design

    Hi we are in central Ohio. We cannot walk into it (it’s raised off the ground). The interior is 6x6 with 3 nesting boxes. The height is about 6ft in the door side and 4 feet on the window side

    Interior coop design

    We are preparing for our first coop. We have most of the exterior completed, we are about to begin the interior hopefully this weekend. However I’m not sure how to design the interior for the most room for the chicks and easy to clean. We will not be using the deep litter method and prefer to...

    Rooster? Or hen?

    Lol. They are hard to tell them apart but this one has more waddle than the other 3 so I think I’m getting the same one. 😂
