I have 6 hens and a nice small coop with 2 nesting boxes. All 6 hens will only lay in one of the 2 boxes. Box boxes are identical and I am not sure if I should care about this at all. They seem to just want to poop in the other box. Wow, chickens poop alot.
I have a year os so old Dominique rooster who is VERY noisy. I am wondering if he would make a tasty snack rather than find a new home. He is well fed and well.
I am over near Fredericksburg Virginia. If anyone knows any local breeders and suppliers please let me know.
This is a great site, thanks for having me!
Hi everyone, I am planning for getting a flock of about 8-10 in the spring. I have started on my coop. It is 4x6' and stands with 3' clearance in the front, 5' in the rear. I plan to build some nesting boxes inside, probably 5. Any advice on how to proceed? I plan to use the deep litter method...
