    "Louisiana "La-yers" Peeps"

    WOW! 10 pages in one day! I guess I'm gonna have to check in more often than just once a day. LOL! I was actually headed to bed and thought "Wait!! I haven't checked BYC today!!!" I guess I just needed my fix of chicken info today. Anyway, I will make all of my comments tomorrow. Have been...

    "Louisiana "La-yers" Peeps"

    Wow, y'all have been really chatty the last couple of days. Had a really busy weekend so I wasn't able to even get on the computer to read anything. Unfortunately, my coop is having to be put off for a little while. But I am still keeping my fingers crossed. I've been looking for pallets and...

    Quote: Sorry to hear that you were not feeling well. Are you ok today? When I logged on and saw that there were about 3 pages since the last time I logged on (yesterday), I was speechless. So much to catch up on. Thanks for asking Julie. I am much better. I'm not sure what was going on...

    Good Morning All! Hope everyone is enjoying this heat, NOT! I am sooo not use to this anymore. I remember that as a kid living here it didn't bother me, but boy am I spoiled to AC now. Anyway.... Am going tomorrow to get the material to build a brooder for babies. Should I keep them inside or...

    Quote: The only con to that is inhaling it . It can lodge in your lungs like asbesto does . So would it hurt the chickens too?

    Quote: Thanks!! You can have 20 in that space and that's going 5 square foot per bird and it usually recommends 4!! You would just need a run double that size!! You just made my day! I had already planned for the run to be at least twice if not 3 times that size. But that is about all I can...

    Quote: I like that coop! I just wish I had the room to have one like that. I'm gonna be limited on the number of chickens I can have because of my space. I'm determined to have my 10 x 10 coop with a decent sized run, but I know I can't have a whole lot of chicks in that small of a coop.

    Ok, I've seen people talking about different things to use for mites and whatnot. Just because I don't know and am learning, but I think I read somewhere that the food grade diatomaceous earth was good for that. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Also, I finished clearing the spot for my coop!! I...
