I've only had my chicks for a week and notice one of them,what looks like ,dusting in the pine shavings and spilled food,causing the others to peck the food off. Is this normal at this young age?
Hi everyone. I recently read somewhere that Rhode Island reds need a lighted coop. Is there any truth to this,and why? If it's true will a lighted coop affect other breeds in my flock?
Thanks
Hello all. New to this site but love everything about it. I don't have a flock as of yet but will have one this spring. I was considering six hens for eggs only,but think the coop needs to be pretty big. I am considering getting just 4 as of now. I want to build or buy a coop of the right size...
