    What breed is this? Roo?

    He is and I want to keep him if I can. If he's too much for my current sweet roo or gets aggressive with my kids, my BFF who wants to start a new flock said she would take him.

    What breed is this? Roo?

    I have an unidentified 5 week old chick and as many do, I’m hoping it’s not a roo. I know nothing about black maran but I’m guessing this might be one?

    Chicken run plans only?

    I have a chicken coop and want to add a larger run, but I'm afraid of building something that won't hold up to snow and wind. I'm not a designer, but I'm pretty good with building structural things. I'm small and not extremely strong so I can't do anything too crazy, though, but I may be able to...

    chicks panting in heat

    Mine are a bit older than yours and also in the NE. I made a lot more shade for them, and I put a cheap box fan from Home Depot outside the run facing in and they flocked right to it and even open their wings a bit to let the air blow under. I installed a 16" wall-hang fan inside the coop, as...
