    Worried about foxes.

I haven't yet seen them, or had any problems with my chickens, but I'm worried they'll find my coop soon and just go crazy one night.

    What breed or mixed breeds do you think?

    I have two girls who I got from the same person. I'm wondering what breed they are. They have ear tufts, like an Aracauna, and they are supposed to lay blue eggs, but they have a tail, like an Ameracauna. Also, Cora,the one in the picture, has a more upright posture, and is smaller than the...

    My coop repainted!

    If you saw my post, you know that I recently got a coop and now I'm the proud mama of 4 girls! Anyway, when we got the coop it was ugly red and had crappy plywood type wood to cover the exposed wire. I decided today that a change was in order. I started painting while the girls free ranged at...
