    Mixed Flock - What to Feed

    What happens if you have all the laying hens in the mix and 2 roosters? Does that mean that you would feed All Flock and not Layers b/c of the boys?

    Layer feed??!! Mixed age flock.

    Can I jump in here with another question - what is the type of feeding bin that people prefer? I cannot land on anything that seems to really work and stick.

    Favorite All Flock feed?

    The Broody Jail

    Hi All, Here is our setup for Broody Jail. She has been broody for over a month and I was so busy with other stuff I just let her do it but now really need/want her to come back to the other side. Does this look OK?

    Natural breeding thread

    Here is our update: Mom & chick are doing good, although mom still sits alot as if there is an egg she is sitting on. Is that normal? The two of them go out for a quick snack and drink and then typically go back to their box to sit/sleep. They are in their own enclosure still but Rooster dad...

    Natural breeding thread

    Thanks for everyone's support. Mama & chick are doing great, they are in their own space and seemingly very good. There is still an egg from 4/22 under the other broody, I let her keep it versus give back to mom #1. Not sure how that one will go but the first one is good and things seem...
