    Winterizing a coop

    So a lot of you let your chickens out during the winter? I was planning on locking them up. I guess I could get some good plastic and seal up the run... Anyhow, there are vents along the eaves, and I have plans to put a vent in the top where there used to be one, when I lock the girls up at...

    Winterizing a coop

    We got this little girl with the RIR we purchased. It looks like an Americaunas (sp.) But I don't know all that much about chickens and so many have beards. She should be about 18 weeks old. Sent from my SM-N910W8 using Tapatalk

First we found 5 chicks and a dozen 1 year Olds. One of our dogs decided after some time to kill them. He took 3 babies and 9 layers in a day...
