    Shed into coop Paint or no paint

    Thank you, I thought for a 42 year old and a 10 year old we did pretty good! Will have to take a pic this weekend to show the door as it is now. Hubby put a wide board across the bottom. We don't have coons or many critters around here at all but there's always a possibility... It does look...

    Shed into coop Paint or no paint

    My nephew Josh and I painted the walls of the shed/coop. Also painted a dresser nest box and made a new roost. Still working on it, still need to paint the ceiling and finish the outside. We both like the inside paint the best. Paint was free old cans mixed together. It worked! :-)

    Young rooster ID

    We honestly have no idea. We are new to chickens.... I just looked up Sebright and it does look like you are right. It would be nice if he did stay smaller so my nephews won't be afraid of him. Thank you for responding!!!

    Young rooster ID

    My husband has been asking me to come here and ask what you thought this guy might be. We got him from a feed store for $5.00 and the only things the man could tell us is that it was not a fighting rooster, was mixed and very young. Any ideas? It doesn't matter to me what he is. I just know...

    Shed into coop Paint or no paint

    It's my family that says not to paint. Not because they know anything about chickens but because they think it looks good, like a rustic feel. Yes, the shed it metal. I don't think I can stand to look at it as is so I think I am going to paint the outside. Especially knowing how good the...

    Shed into coop Paint or no paint

    My nephews 10 & 7 years old are going to help us make our shed into a coop for our pullets. We are going to work on it every weekend. (so far we just have a door that isn't done yet) One thing about it that is bothering me is whether to paint the outside or not. I think it should be painted...

    You know you're addicted to chickens when you dream of collecting juicy bugs in a jar for them. I dreamed that last night.

    Hello from Central California

    My husband LOVES chickens. He brought home a hen when we first got married (nearly 14 years ago). He named her Henrietta. We went on a 3 day trip and had our cousin care for her. When we got back home we were laughing because he said, "She's not a chicken, she's a PET!" Apparently he sat on...
