    Florida Coop build advice please

    Have you read this article? https://www.backyardchickens.com/articles/top-10-chicken-predators.75824/ As long as you can keep them out , you should be fine. btw Chicken math is what happens when you keep getting more chickens until you can't count how many you have.

    Yet another 'name my coop' post

    Do Nosy Neighbours Count As Pests?

    Hi Zeil. Sorry about your weird neighbors. I'm not sure I have anything new to add to this discussion but here is my 2 cents: I think the torches in the rain might be nightcrawler or mushroom collecting, but who knows. I would probably sit in the back yard and clean some guns or sharpen a...
