    Will do. Think of a plastic dog house. =) I'll take photos of mine tomorrow with the tray removed and you can tell me what you think.

    Has anyone converted a chicken eglu for ducks

    Hey guys. You are my experts. I've been a chicken owner for five years. We have a small, family pet, flock and they live in a Eglu Cube. We previously had three Eglu Go houses and I kept one. Now my kids are begging for a pair of ducks for pets. The Eglu house is nice for them to sleep and I...

    Max. number of hens you have fit in eagle cube?

    Hi, I've owned three Eglu Go coops for five plus years now. I recently ordered a Cube. I know six, full size hens, will fit comfortably in the cube. I wouldn't push it further than that. My girls are in excellent health and look fantastic. That being said, with three Eglu Go houses all six of my...

    Easter Egger Roo?

    Thank you guys! I might be able to keep one rooster but not two. I have four girls presently and this will make seven. Perfect for one rooster as long as my neighbors don't complain. We can have a max of twelve in my area and roosters are up to the community. So far nobody has cared in three...

    Easter Egger Roo?

    Could this be an Americauana with a pea comb?

    Easter Egger Roo?

    Here is the grey one. Not her too!!! They are about six weeks in five days. I've bought all mine from the same person and they've never been wrong before.

    Here are some more photos. It's not bigger than the other two. Still not sure though.

    Easter Egger Roo?

    I purchased three Easter Eggers and they are all various shades. One is a grey, one is browns and one is this black and white. Only one has produced a small red comb. Pretty sure it's a roo. Could I be wrong? They are 5 weeks.

    My chickens have barely laid in 8 months....

    I did a check and I think I got it right. It seems to be three fingers. I tried it on two girls. They have been locked in their run for two days but no eggs. Also, no signs of egg eating. Nothing can get into their run so I know it's not that. Now it may be the winter temps so do you think it...

    My chickens have barely laid in 8 months....

    Anyone else have any ideas? A neighbor of mine has chickens in a pen with one nest box, way scruffier digs than my girls, and hers are laying like crazy. Can you over spoil a chicken? LOL

    My chickens have barely laid in 8 months....

    I just spent a long while in our backyard (we don't have acreage) and I can't find any hidden nests. I searched high and low and left no stone unturned. I locked up the little beasts in their walk in run after cleaning everything. The run is completely predator proof. I really doubt having...

    My chickens have barely laid in 8 months....

    I'm at a loss as to what could possibly be keeping my girls from laying. Yes, they went through a molt and it seems that they have constantly been growing new feathers over nearly 8 months. They are alert, healthy looking, good weights. There are no signs of parasites. They have well ventilated...

    Really trying to improve my chickens feed.....

    Thank you for all the replies. I did read them all and I'm sourcing some of the things mentioned. One of the bummers of living in a rural mountain town is the accessibility to some things but I'm looking at shipping.
