spreading false information. bigger chickens doesn’t necessarily mean bigger eggs. i’ve contacted multiple avian vets who all say it is perfectly safe to feed roosters layer pellets

this is awesome that you are doing this! a recommendation from my experience: mine have a small run that has the wire mesh (i think it’s called hardware cloth) that’s like 1cm by 1cm squares all the way under the run and on all sides so raccoons can dig, but they still can’t get in, buried...

thanks!

also, great pics!

is that snow? it looks like sugar 😂

i had some trouble finding a booster that works. which one do you use?

so this works if your *wifi doesn’t reach all the way out at your coop?

it’s really cool that you’re posting this cuz i’ve been having a hard time finding pics of what my little guy is gonna look like (he’s got the same coloring, easter egger, but only about 16 weeks old)

why?

and when you’re done, if they’re still good, you can put them back up for someone else. it’s nice to reuse them and then it doesn’t fill your recycle bin.

he’s doing fine behavior-wise. i was just curious what that’s about. he’s not mean, just seems to be training them or something. he’s really sweet and now he can’t be eaten anyway because of the implant

we aren’t allowed to have roosters where we live and he was thought to be a girl, but im sure you know that’s not always accurate. of course, i had already fallen in love and the rooster rescue is no longer taking more

my newest batch is almost 16 weeks old. 3 girls and 1 boy and they will be introduced to the others. my little dude has a hormone implant so he almost never crows and *knock on wood* hasn’t mounted any of them. they live in a giant box in the house and they have a tractor type thing for backyard...

im not gonna read the 4 hundred and something pages of people being ignorant, but fyi LGBT friend here :) Love isn’t the same thing as sex. When people see a straight couple holding hands, they don’t automatically jump to their sex life so why do people do that when they see non-straight couples?
