    Blue/Black/Splash Orpingtons - It's what's for dinner

    I grew up on a ranch in Texas and we saughtered a lot of critters, plus I love to hunt so the process doesn't bother me any. Just make sure you salt the hide as soon as you can if you are going to have it tanned. Looks like you did a great job though.

    Chick in my pocket

    Yep, and long as it is cleaned up she will do fine. I have found that some chicks just seem to keep getting it once they have done so. But while the warm water is still on there bum, I just try to gently pull out the surrounding down and that helps a lot.

    Water in the coop?

    I would not build directly over the well. I would worry about the contaminates in the feed, like the meds, leaching down around the well casing and contaminating the water supply. Close by would be fine, just not right over it.

    Heat lamps in the coop?

    They will adjust to the light. I am just a chicken when it comes to lights in the coop unless they are properly installed and protected. Lots of coops burn down from heat lamps every year.
