My DH and I are campground owners. Last night we talked about transforming an 8x30 abandoned trailer into a coop. Good features are 2 doors, 2 roof vents with fans, and water. Will have to remove TV, sofa, beds, sinks, oven, fridge + table. Of course there's cabinets and closets, although I...

I need size 4 legbands for chicks, assorted colors. My local stores don't have them. And to buy 100 from Cutlers supply it was $5 plus $13 shipping. 100 weighs .5 oz. If I needed something else it wouldn't have been so bad. So if anyone has some, I'd like to buy them. Thanks.
I have want a Brinsea incubator and now they're on sale. but I can't decide on which one.
This will be my first time hatching eggs. I was going to get the ECO with turner for $150 but the other 2 have come way down in price.

My hens have just started laying a month. They were using their boxes. There are 20 boxes for 23 hens. When 9 were laying, I found a couple of eggs on the floor and a couple on the poop board. Okay I put in plastic eggs in the nest boxes. Okay they've been kicking the plastic ones out of...
Last night when I locked everyone up I took a count - 2 hens were missing. They were my flighty Ameraucanas. I looked everywhere, under the coop, in the trees, but couldn't find them or any feathers. Although the were capable of flying to the top of the 6 foot dog run, they rarely did it and...
I have 11 EE hens. 2 of them layed an egg yesterday and both eggs were light brown. I really wanted blue and green eggs. Cross your fingers for me, as I still have 9 hens to lay.
BTW, they didn't lay the eggs in the box. Can I use plastic easter eggs as decoys?
Hi, a question from a newbie
What do you feed a hen and her chicks? Chick starter or Layer? Does it really matter? Why, I would really like to learn the reasons. They would eat the same as the hen when free ranging? Of course they would be much older than because of the weather. Thanks in...
I promised my DH to thin the flock (he already built 2 coops this summer)
