    Watering cups question.

    So I have watering cups I use for the girls but every other day there is a layer of algae at the bottom that I have to clean. How do I keep that from happening or is there better ideas? Thanks!

    RIR confusion

    So this comb grew this big within a day or two so I was sure cockerel. But now at almost 9 weeks it hasn't grown any and still just a tiny bit of red. Plus no wattles. What does everyone else think?

    Chicken run ideas

    So I have a 13x9 chicken run that still has grass and I want the grass to stay as long as possible. Problem is because it's so hot out the poop is starting to smell a bit. How can I cover up the smell without covering the grass with sand or any kind of bedding? Is it even possible?

    Leaving the brooder

    When do you all recommend putting the chicks outside? Mine are fully feathered except for the necks. They are almost 5 weeks old and in Indy it's about 80 during the day and 65 at night.

    Black sex linked with brown spot.

    So I just found out that black sex link males have white on their heads and females are all black. What about a brown spot? He/she has had it from day 1. Supposed to be a pullet.

    Another ventilation question.

    Im sure this has been asked before but any ideas on keeping rain out of these mini windows but allowing them to stay open for ventilation? The roof does overhang a bit so it's only a problem on windy rains.

    New Hampshire red

    Ok so my 8 week old New Hampshire red already has his/her comb turning red. However the tail feathers are still real short. When sexing is it more important to look at comb or tail feathers? Here's a picture if anyone can tell.
