Me again. :frow
When and how do you start introducing treats to chickens?
My idea is to use them as a way to get them to come back to me when they're finally outside and foraging in my yard... (If that even works??) I'm afraid of them wandering into neighbors' yards or in the street! They are...

//ROOSTERS//
When will I know I have a rooster?
One week old? Two weeks?
Is there an exchange forum available on this site to help rehome roosters?
If I wind up with roosters, would any of you local sweeties like them? Happy to drive them to you!
My first batch of chicks arrive tomorrow! :celebrate

Soft Flake Pine Shavings
Potty Pads
54-Gallon Tub

Ahhh. Roosting bars should be below windows, height-wise? My roosting bars are currently going to be accross from the windows in the coop...
And, yes. Maaco is gorgeous. I'll be right over for a playdate. Please and thanks. I really do miss my Great Pyr... Fencing in my property is next on my...
