    Help! My hens Arn't Laying....

    I had a gentleman tell me to start putting red pepper flakes in with the chicken feed and it will help make them start laying, a friend of mine who has some older hens started giving it to his and they started laying again. It helped get some of my pullets to start laying also.

    Well I have a very sensitive nose so I want all the ventilation I can get and as we all know chicken poop can get very smelly on certain days so I like as much of a draft as I can get to help out. I've been in a few coops that could gag a maggot, but those weren't kept clean, I find it just...

    Well it's only open air on one side which is facing south for the summer breeze, but I'm planning on adding another section to the open side in the future to give them more room, but I was planning on leaving it open on that side. My other knotheads that free range won't even entertain the idea...

    here's a pic of my coop, it's not much but it looks like my grandparents coop from the old farm! It matches my old time farmer decorating motif! Lol! Which translates to that's the cheapest way I know how to do it!! :)

    All it takes from what I've found is good food a clean place to sleep, a little love and they do pretty good! Mine have a 16'x16' run they play in and a 12'x16' coop, and they don't get the run until I get home! But mine think grass clippings are the best thing in the world. I am going to expand...
