    My chicken died :(

    Quote: Thank you for you comment. I had no idea what "internal layer" was. At least I know what could have gone wrong. And no roosters in my flock (not the neighbor's favorite)

    My chicken died :(

    Quote: Hey!!! You know....if the tarp is a good strong one, you could fill up the pool table "pit" with about 2-3 inches of sand. Bet they would love having an indoor sand pit to roll around in (and easy to clean out any "accidents")... Awesome idea... we'll try that for sure!

    Quote: Thanks! Yeah, we're putting some blocks as a base. I put fresh wood shavings everyday. My chickens like to toss them out when they're getting comfortable

    Our coop

    Hello! Actually, not a single racoon so far. We have never seeing one around our home in the 5 years we've been here. Hopefully they will be safe. We do close the windows and door at night.

    Yeah... they are sure spoiled. We let them free range during the day. They love eating the bugs and greens around the yard. They ate all of my lettuce while I was gone for a few days!!!
