    who puts/doesn't put food and water in the coop?

    I keep food and water in run... they dont go in coop at all during daylight hours. when I first put them in coop I hung food and water in there, but they spent all day in run, it made sense to keep it out there. I do let them out at 5am as they are squaking to get out. :)

    Where is the best place to put a coop?

    Shade for sure and if possible a small sunny side as well. I was worried they would be cool so I went with a mainly sunny spot, bad idea they need shade!!! I would also consider view from your house, I like being able to see them.

    Chipped beak... Will it grow back

    All 5 of my chickens beaks got chipped from pecking at hardware cloth because my kids were feeding them grass through the wire. All 5 healed back to normal in a short amount of time. This was just the tip of the beaks.

    Chicken repeatedly scraping beak on stone patio?

    Mine scrape their beaks back and forth every day, I dont know why but they do. They do this so frequently I thought it was normal... I hope your hen is ok :)

    Post a pic of your chickens "beating the heat"

    How cute! Ive got a smlar set up with the canopy in the run, they hang out there all day, still panting, but under cover- I am leary of putting out any kind of water to bathe in as Ive got one all bandaged up with bumblefoot. I tried fans last heat wave and it just scared them.

    Possible Bumble foot?

    I am currently treating a pullet with bumble foot but she walks around fine, I noticed pink swelling in between toes first off and it was pretty significant, but never hindered her from walking. If theres no black scab that may not be the issue....maybe she injured her leg?
