Yes I replaced the ramp to its original spot immediately then I placed the hands inside the coop that evening close the door I let them out the next day but that night they went back to the roost up above the coop

Thank you 😊

Hi everyone my new flock I had trained to go into the coop at night then I moved their ramp one night now suddenly they don't want to go in anymore they're all roosting at the highest point inside the chicken run they're safe they're high up they're all penned in but I'm afraid that they won't...

Could it be a rooster? I had some bullets that I picked out and I picked one cuz it resembled a hawk turned out to be a rooster! 😂

Thank you not my design it's a prefab coupe I was actually two that I put together I removed a side nesting box from each join them in the middle and left the other two on the ends seems to work well gives them a huge ballroom like feeling in the center 😊

All birds seem happy and healthy 11 beautiful little baby hands and one young rooster!

It has been my experience that wants the bird has full feathers it can withstand the cold better that can take the heat if you have a flock if need be they will huddle together make sure you use straw instead of hey straw is tubular holding air pockets which helps to hold heat. Best of luck!

I buy vitamin and nutrients powder for poultry from Amazon you add a measured amount to the drinking water.

Is it possible to have more than one rooster in a in a flock and have them get along?

The bottom of my chicken run is the natural Earth which in my case is sand

My pullets arrived today! Here's my brooding tub.

I'm fairly new to this myself but I've learned that any Chick or rooster or hen that's being aggressive it's best to pick them up and hold them hold them close to you hold them by their legs and make sure they can't turn around and Peck at you the more you handle them the more docile they'll become

I'm not done yet I still have to close the gap
