    Help with chicken shed maintenance

    Also idk if this helps any but when having the shed built, I got them to paint the outside with this weatherproof and pest proof coating of paint and The inside of the shed has this roofing that was suppose to help keep the shed 10 degrees cooler inside. I think both of those have about a 3 year...

    Help with chicken shed maintenance

    This is what I'm working with :/ @RosemaryI never thought to use painting on the inside honestly, lmao. I was just in a hurry to get the chickens moved from the pen to the shed so they would sleep safely. I used fine pine shavings. It's the Tractor Supply brand if that helps any. I wanna say...

    Help with chicken shed maintenance

    Is a run the same as a pen ? They free range unless I'm not home (such as grocery shopping or work). If I'm not around then they stay in a pen until I can get home. Pen is not currently attached to their shed and it's an 8 x 8 pen. Both pen and shed are side by side however. They have a small...

    Help with chicken shed maintenance

    So, to keep the long story short, back around August of last year I got a 10 x 12 shed for my chickens to keep them safe from predators at night. I've noticed that keeping the shed cleaned is much harder than when I had just tiny houses in their pen. I have 18 chickens exactly but they have the...

    Chick attacking chick by accident

    Thank you both for the input :) I didn’t have this problem with my first batch of chicks last year so I was surprised to see it happen with this years batch. Lol, I’m kinda glad it’s not only my chick who does this

    Chick attacking chick by accident

    Hey there ! So, I’m adding to my flock this year and bought a few different chicks a couple days ago. Not sure on their ages because I was so caught up in fluffiness that I forgot to ask. I’ve noticed that one of my Amberlink chicks keeps mistaking the other chicks toes for worms I assume ...

    Help Identifying Chks / Duck

    Thank you ^.^ Lol, there's part of me that was hoping the duck really was a female because it would have been cool to have duck eggs. I've never heard of Amberlink before but it does look like my white female. Though now I'm confused why Tractor Supply would list the chickens as one breed but...

    Help Identifying Chks / Duck

    When my white hen started getting those brown spots, I always thought they were poop too but they never washed off. So those odd brown spots are part of her coloration
