Yeah, that was kind of what I figured. I'm always wary of pet/animal products from Wal-Mart. I picked it up in hopes I'd get some replies that said yeah I've used it for years and had no problems. Kept the receipt it will likely go back on my next trip into town. The problem with ingredients...

Has anyone used this stuff? It says it’s safe to use on your brooder and you don’t need to remove the chicks. For $10.18 seems like it’s worth trying out but at the same time I don’t want to hurt my chicks. They are 4 weeks old now. The ingredients say water, natural enzymes, surfactant...

They will be free ranged during the day and it's pretty thin metal an angle grinder will cut any holes I need in it with no problem. I looked into wooden sheds and they are 3x the cost. I will be raising it up about a foot and then putting hardware cloth and large stones around the bottom that...

Can and have already got the labels and the pickup set for Monday. Only lost $8.95 for returning it but I got a $25 credit for leaving the bad review so not a loss. :D

I did look into those originally but it didn't seem like a good fit for my yard. Most of them I looked at were moveable and while I have a lot of land around my place it's all leased to a farmer and trees in my yard would make moving it around a bit difficult and would probably have to put it...

I’ve started the return for this coop. Thankfully I haven’t built it yet. Do you think a galvanized steel shed would be easy to convert to a coop? I was thinking something like this...

Yeah I’m pretty angry about it. I’m considering returning it but I’ll need to find something else really quick. I may use it temporarily and get something larger ASAP. Unfortunately I’ve had a bunch of unexpected expenses in the past couple of weeks so money is very tight. I haven’t had a chance...

https://www.wayfair.com/pet/pdp/tucker-murphy-pet-aminullah-chicken-coop-w008085804.html This is the coop I bought. When I emailed to ask how many chickens would fit they replied telling me 62. That seemed way off. I have 15 chicks currently. I’m really worried this coop won’t be large enough...

Hey, was wondering how the coop came out and what the total cost was. I’m in eastern NC myself (Onslow Co.) I’m new to chickens and am going to be building a prefab coop I bought online this week. As I’m learning more I’m already having buyers remorse on the coop and will likely be needing to...

I bought some chicks at TSC 3 weeks ago. My mom has chickens and seems to enjoy them so at least I have someone I can call when I need help. I’ve found myself on this site a lot when doing research so I figured I might as well join since I seem to be here so much. Will be assembling my coop I...
