    Skunk Smell.....HELP!

    The fortress is nearly complete!

    Quote: Same with mine. I have 5 girls/ 3 boxes and they all use the same box. Once in awhile they change boxes, but then they will all follow and lay in that one.

    Interesting Chicken Coop Design- - Need Your Input

    Quote: You could put a coop stationary with a small run around it and let the chickens out in your yard to roam and then put them in for the night. They can keep your yard in shape. You can always try one way and if it doesn't work for you try another.
