    Mite Problem

    If this were happening here (and it has) this is what I would do: 1. Dust the chickens good with poultry dust (I use http://www.amazon.com/Prozap-Garden-Poultry-Dust-Lb/dp/B001BM4JLM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1384179892&sr=8-1&keywords=poultry+dust) If it's easier you can put the powder in a...

    Too cute!,

    We bought 6 day old chicks (girls - barred rock) and we put them under a broody Buff Orpington (Bertha). Bertha just loves them! It almost brings tears to my eyes watching them follow her and sleep on her back. So sweet and natural.

    do you bring your chickens inside?

    Motion sensor lights

    We have a motion light right at the front door of the coop. My husband put it there for me - I will sometimes go out (yes - after they have already been tucked in) and check on my girls if the weather is bad or I am worried about one of them. We also have one of those blinking red predator...

    Maybe you have already tried this but when I want mine to come to me I shake the coffee can full of sunflower seeds and they all come running.
