yes i did that in washington (yes in the rain) the chicks i kept inside(control group b?) were slower to grow and sickly looking tho not actually ill ...and also how about some shade cover / hawk cover in the pasture ?any info? we had eagles but also trees and wild salmon so the eagle was not to...
info on baby chickens kept outside ..heard chicks raised outside with access to sandy dirt while growing are less likely to get sick than those kept indoors..well the weather is nice and sooo whats your opinion
i know this sounds insane but anyone hear of any people in florida having icelandic chickens ? they are so pretty but i fear it would be chicken abuse to have them down here... sigh
my chickens loved grass clippings but i lived in washington state so everything was wet and rotty but i found that if i put a lil fence board sideways across the edge of the run and put sand in there (course) that it would drain when i rained for seven months and the poop wouldnt stink also...
