    Poll Time: Cool the Coop & Chickens

    At one time, I thought the ventilation in my coop was enough. BUT... the birds were still very hot, so I put a fan in the loft area. It draws air from the front of the coop (which is a chain link gate)... and it fans the chickens, then the air goes out the back of the coop. I also supplement...

    Thoughts on Roosters??

    I'm newer to the chicken arena than most here... BUT! I now have 2 roosters... and they are quite an invincible duo. Thus far, the 2 roosters have not butted-heads... I'm playing it by ear.

    Hello everyone, This is my new(er) coop. I can use it for ducks, chickens, turkeys, or whatever bird I have on the farm. This is an arrow shed. I leveled a place with the tractor, brought in dozens of loads of dirt to level where the building sits. I made a frame and poured 50+ bags of...
