    What coop is this? Where can I get it?

    That will hold 2 chickens, and only if you add a run or free range them during the day. I have something similar, 7yrs old, and we added a big addition and then a 9 x 15ish run, around it, made of 2x4s and covered with welded wire, even on top. They are cute, but tiny.

It's too cold here in NY right now to have them outside at night, we at the still having frost. Low 30s some nights. They can go on the porch...

    Guess the age help, 4 weeksish?

    These guys (hopefully gals) were feathering out at TSC crammed in the new brooders body to body when I got them. They didn't know the age. I think we have had them 2 weeks now? Any guesses on age? I have them at house temperature (in the bathroom near a heater that pops on on colder nights)...

    My custom coop arrived and it was wrong :(

    Oh I understand that! Now, almost 8 years later, I need both knees replaced and there's no way I could do it again. When the kit part gives out, I'd like to wall off one corner of the run and add the box with legs thats still good back on. But that's too ambitious for the conditon I'm in. (I...

    My custom coop arrived and it was wrong :(

    ...or strong arms. I have almost no knowledge of construction and we made a really nice chicken coop and a huge run (welded wire walls for run, walk in human sz door, and wire over the top with a black mesh shade tarp *roof*, no experience, way cheaper than the custom (amish) ones sold around here.

    Official BYC Poll: How Often Do You Clean Your Coop?

    My run floor gets so high that I can't open the door to the inner under house, where I add newbies that are still smallish. It's kind of a hard set up to explain, the accumulation of doodoo and stuff (which is good, it keeps it higher, drains well in the spring) gets TOO high. I actually go...

    Official BYC Poll: How Often Do You Clean Your Coop?

    When I was new to chickens I used to shovel the entire thing out every week and replace it with fresh shavings. That started to get really expensive! Now I scoop out the poop as needed. If there is a broken egg, I clean the whole thing out. basically I clean it when it needs to be cleaned. If...

    My custom coop arrived and it was wrong :(

    When your custom Coop does arrive, if it has the particle board inside I would lay down some cheap vinyl flooring and paint the inside. It'll be a lot easier to clean.

    Black Sex-Link pullets or Barred Rock pullets?

    Holey moley, 10 roos, that's a mess. I think you have barred rocks here. I did have a Black Sex Link female with slight barring though, and all 3 BSL females looked slightly different.

    3 Easter Eggers, 2 Mystery Breed, and 1 Orpington. Help with Breed and Sexing.

    As your Easter Eggers get older, there may be some variation in their coloring, even if they are both females. Cute little babies, enjoy them. Orphingtons are super cuddly and sweet. The Barred Rocks are beautiful birds. :)

    Help...I am a dum dum and forgot what I bought!

    These gals (guys?) Are from Hoover I think. The website offered online options for Hoover. Thats where I came across the blue "sapphire assortment" but these guys were just labeled blue something or anothers. Everyone is having a good night in the small tub. They were SO horribly packed into...

    Help...I am a dum dum and forgot what I bought!

    Thanks :) I know they had ISA Browns, and RIR on one sign, I don't think it was NH. Maybe RIR? ISA B chicks didn't look like this online so I think you are right. There was one more Brown or Red name on a sign as well. I have a horrible memory. I can't remember. The light grey "Blue" is...

    Plastic Tote Brooder

    I'm a tub user as well. I use a 65 watt flood light (old incandescent) for heat. Right on top the dog crate panel covered with chicken wire that I use as a lid, lid strapped on with a luggage strap. Works great. Keep the light at one end, that way they can choose their comfy temp. The flood...
