    Chicken molting & walking sideways

    I have an EE who is doing the same thing. When I give them a treat tho she makes a direct line to it and waste no time. I was wondering about the sideways walking though.

    Best Automatic Chicken Door Openers???

    How did you add the led flasher. I also just got the chicken guard and will be installing it this weekend. The added flasher sounds like a great idea as the door on my coop is on the back side.

    Just wanted to introduce the girls and show off the new coop

Built my coop...
