    HELP with ventilation please, frostbite on comb

    Can you possibly put up a temporary wall to reduce their space? 10 x 12 is larger than they need. If their space was smaller, their body heat would help raise the temp inside. Also, if you cold insulate even a bit on the walls, it would help. Cheap insulation such as empty water/soda...

    How to get hens to brood & do I separate them?

    Right now I have Ameraucanas, Black Australorps, Buff Orpingtons, Production Reds, Highline Browns & a few incubator hatched mixed breeds. I’ve got some Wyandottes on the way. I currently have about 50 hens & roosters & they all free range together.

    How to get hens to brood & do I separate them?

    I WANT a couple hens to set. What are the best ways to encourage broodiness? Should I separate these hens from the rest of the flock? Any & all advice appreciated

    Lavender Ameraucana Breeders .... UNITE
