    FLYS!! What to do?????Help!!

    I haven't tried this, but saw them all around when I was in Corpus Christi, TX last month. Hang a sealed ziplock bag filled with water near the area. The locals told me the water bags "scare" the flies away. I googled it & found that lots of people claim it works. It's cheap & easy to try at...

    What is this??

    I got this chick from the banty bin at Atwoods last month. It is much smaller than any of the others, but it flies! It eats & drinks along with the other chicks, but likes to fly up & sit on top of the small dog house I have in my coop. Can you help me identify this chicken??

    Thanks sooner - I didn't think of that. Was just planning to use landscape timbers as the bottom frame and use spikes into the ground as extra protection. I'm in a rural area - and have seen fox, racoon, armidillo, skunk, and possibly a weasel on my deer cam & hear coyotes nearly every...

    Yep - pretty sure the little red chicks are Production Reds & the yellow one is a Leghorn. Not real sure on the others though. I'll get better pics this weekend, as they are getting used to me handeling them now. I hope these different breeds all get along!!
