    setting her

    I live in the mountains of north Carolina. Winter not got here yet. I have 3 coops one is just for my sitting hens. I found out the hard way to not leave babies in coop with other chickens. Thanks everyone for all the information. I hope she is able to have some chicks.

    It is best to use a floor or is it ok to have a dirt floor in the coop?

    sick chicken

    Could it be something in the food? I have not changed anything in the last month. This is my first flock and I'm still learning. It seems like they are fine and then a couple hours later they are dead. I'm worried about my other cchickens
