Its topping 100 here so I go in several times a day. I grab the egg when I see it. I hope she don't go broody, I have no back up plan. I've been looking for some local pullets now that I've fixed the attic area so nothing can get in. I never thought about the vents of the attic as being a...

she's laying an egg a day, it's only the one little bantam hen. It's so cute to see the rooster taking care of her and her nest when I go in. QUESTION: are the eggs edible? it's well into the 90's in there (fans are blowing), but I don't know how long it would take for the tiny morsels to go...

Loved reading it, great step by steps and tips on where to get stuff. AWESOME COOP!

This guy got a new home IN the country. I'm happy, so happy cause he's going to be gorgeous. Now he can mature within a very large flock of matured ladies and sing all he wants while he figures things out! Thanks all. This group is PHENOMENAL! I need my rooster processed. :( Neighbors and...

What are POOP BOARDS?

No, its not constantly leaking. I moved it outside because I found it leaking a time or two from a nipple getting stuck at an angle, making the floor all wet (solid concrete with straw on top til I get the shavings). Usually it works fine. I'll make a wire mesh plug and replace the plug the...
