    EEs from ChooksChick! new pics in February - page 7

    Quote: I mean a blue feather laced with gold! I know- it's wild...I don't know if I could figure out how to do it on purpose, but if you look at CindyLouWho you'll see what I mean: https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/uploads/14596_cindylouwho.jpg I got shots of some of the chicks, but my...

    BIG FLUFFY flock dog pups- pic heavy

    I soooo wish my yard were fenced. My Molly needs a playmate very badly, but without a fence I can't do it.

    Head Room

    Quote: Not necessarily -- obviously a walk-in height coop is *nice* (for all the reasons cited in previous posts, plus the temp. is stabler and you need less air exchange in relation to volume - for sure the extra height is not wasted! ) but a reach-in height, like 2-4' high, can be ventilated...

    BARNEVELDER ROOSTER - free to good home

    Beautiful. I think central OH is a bit far, though.

    Head Room

    Quote: Newbie here that doesn't even have chickens yet, but don't you need to consider roost height as compared to ventilation area? If the height of the coop isn't tall enough for the roost to keep them away from the draft of ventilation, it would need to be taller.

    Left for dead on my door

    How horrible to leave them like they did, but lucky that you found them. I know they're much better off now. Cute little buggers.

    Finished BYC coop page

    Very nice! Still working on getting my coop finished. Outside frame and floor is done, but was just told we need more 2x4s before we can go further - ugh.

    Paper With Deep Litter Method?

    Quote: Newspaper should be more absorbent than regular white letter paper by far. If you stuff it into your sneakers after washing, newspaper will pull the water right out of them and your sneaks will dry overnight as opposed to taking several days. I'm planning on using shavings, maybe...

    Paper With Deep Litter Method?

    I've seen posts where some add shredded paper to their shavings when using the deep litter method. I'm all about keeping costs down and recycling, but are all types of paper acceptable? I'm assuming regular white paper is ok and will shred my junk mail, but what about colored newspaper (store...

    Plywood vs OSB?

    Quote: The ones I have are just wire screen for the windows. I am going to be adding Plexiglas covers to stop the wind this winter. Truthfully I think that OSB can't be anymore dangerous than paint. I doubt any glue fumes or other toxins are leached out. Many people use them in their houses...
