    over run with stones

    thanks the stones are not sharp just the genric gray gardening stones. WE did cover them with soil but today is raining and it is flooded back there. Should I lay sand on top? THe Ivy is gone after the DH and 4 year old son recovered from it.

THe area we are puttint he coop on is a 12 X 12 are that used to home ducks. Once the Ducks were gone my dad had broke up the concrete and added a ton of stones...

    Baby chicks and grit

    When I asked htis question I was told if your babies are only getting starter and no other food then they do not need grit. If you wanna give them treats then start the grit and treats no earlier than 2 weeks.

    why do some chicks do this?

    my girls are no longer needed a light so I put the waters on a brick of wood at one end of the brooder and the feeders on the other end. It seems to stay slightly cleaner being away fro teh feeder but I am gonna try the nipple bottle today since i have one laying around!
