    Finaly caught **Graphic pictures!**

    How do I intrduce babys to 2 month old rooster and hen?

    My last flock (5/7) got eaten by mice due to poor coop building, and I take full responsibility for that issue. After a few tweaks, wood and wiring I made the coop 99.99% predator free.( I hope). Now I just bought 6 more chicks (1-2 weeks old). I put them in a special cage where I'll take care...
