    Baby chick set up question

    Ok so I know about Teflon poisoning, and im paranoid about it lol. The only place I can put the baby chicks is on the enclosed back porch, which is also where the propane griddle/grill is. If the grill got cooked on would it make the chicks sick? I know it's not an ideal place to put then but...

    Two broody hens

    That was the plan with the new coop, sorry for the misunderstanding, this was just a temporary set up with long-term plan of merging. We have been collecting pallets for almost two years now and have just about enough to build it. There is more than one nesting box in both coops , but they only...

    Two broody hens

    Remove the fertilized eggs I put in there from the brahmas or the unfertilized eggs they keep laying, and let them wait it out? I don't think they're fighting over them
