They have been going out to the run for about the last week. I was opening the door and they were going out but not off the ramp. Then one day they discovered the bugs and all decided to leave the ramp and venture around the run. The run is covered and is 8x16. I was wondering about the heat...

My chicks will be 5 weeks old tomorrow and was wondering around what temp can I stop keeping the heat lamp on. They are already in their big coop and the temps at night have been in the high 50 to low 60.

Been opening the run for the past few days and today they finally ventured off the ramp. 4 weeks old yesterday

Looking good

My chicks are getting big. Will be 4 weeks on Monday.

Thanks for putting this together. I'm new to chickens and it's helped alot.

Can chickens eat asparagus. I just moved into this house and have it growing wild in my ditcH. I didn't know it was there and I found it yesterday but it got to big so instead of letting it go to waste I figured I would give it to them if it's ok

Can chickens eat raw asparagus. I have a bunch that I didn't eat and was wondering if they can

Here's mine

Yes I have

My fuzzy butts are getting big. I moved them out to the sectioned off space in the coop today. It gives them more room to play....

Do you have any problems with the roosts stagered. Like that. I was thinkING about doing mine that way but was wondering if the ones on the lower roost get pooped on. How wide is your board and spacing between roosts. Thanks for any info you can give me

My wife and I bought a house that the previous owners left a pen up that we think they raised sheep in for 4H. Can anyone give us info on raising sheep. We want to put something I the pen that was left here just not sure as to what. Things we would like to know is how much space is needed...
