I want to thank all of you for your wonderful help.
I went out and bought 2 traps to put out. we haven't seen the coon since that night, but I'm sure there are more out there as we live out in the country.
Y'all have given us so many options and have been so helpful I am so glad to be a part...
CarolJ, Thank you for the information I appreciate the information. The only problem I have with that is my coop is taller than my fence. So I guess we will have to figure out a way to do that. In the meantime I'll have to figure something out and make sure my girls are locked up tight before...
I've been leaving the trap door open and the entry door open during the day since it's been so hot here in NE TX. I go out right at dark and close the doors. Last when I got to the gate there was a large coon getting ready to go into the coop, well needless to say I started yelling at it (I knew...
Thank you so much, yes I think your right I was just looking at the pictures. I just posted another pictures of the one you think is the silver penciled fayoumi .
Your right I made a mistake I do have 2 different chicks. I was not paying attention when I was tagging the pictures, thank you for bring it to my attention.
Thank you so much for the info. She is very shy, they all come to me and get up on me but she hides from me and looks around the corner at m, she is so funny. I hope in time she will get out of her shyness. Yes you are right about me labeling it wrong I do have 2 chicks with about the same...
My chickie's are 8 wks old. I know most of the breeds now but there are a few that I still need to find out what they are. Here's the scoop I bought the surprise special from Ideal Poultry (25 pullets) only 2 died so I have 23. I thought that was pretty good since this was my first time doing...
Hi Jazx, my chicks are about 8 weeks old now and when I put them in the coop they did the same thing but after several days they they started roosting on their roosts. Mine still get in a nest box or at least 2 or 3 of them at a time but they end up on the roost. I have 24 girls and they are all...
Hi welcome from NE TX too!! Timpson, TX here. Where are you in NE TX, we may be close neighbors we're only about 40 min. from Shreveport.
My Chickie's are 5 weeks old, all girls. I know you were excited on getting your first egg.
Hope we will be talking and seeing you around.
We went out this morning and put a tarp over part of our chicken yard for my 5 week old chickie's to give them extra shade. It worked great and the chickie's loved the extra shade. Poor lil things we feel sorry for them out there, I'm planning on putting a small rock pond in for them to wade in...
Beautiful, just beautiful ..... I've been wanting some geese and I've decided these are the ones I want. I just love them, I just want to hug them. You should be so proud of them.
I love your Silkies and your roosters are so pretty!!! Do you have any problems with the roosters fighting? I was told to only have 1 rooster per yard, because they would fight.
