This was my first view, when I walked out this morning
Well I was glad to see it missed my Barred Rock, and EE pens.
I'm still not able to see some of my beagles on chains, oh, there's one. Frank made it! And his brother John was buried next to him, But he faired just fine too(a little shook...
I've got 5 pens raised, and attached to a shed. They are each the same size, and I have 1 trio in 2 pens and 2 trios in the other 3. Are my nest boxes adequate? Do they need to be seperated by cardboard so they can't see the others? I've not got any eggs and I've seen them bredding for a few...

My wife thinks I'm crazy because of my chickens(or the feelings I have for them). I'm on the net everyday looking at chickens, buying chickens, or selling chickens, and I finally found a forum where I can talk about chickens. Well anyways happy to be here, and I'm sure to be posting soon.
