I have 13 chicks in the brooder and have seven adult sized hens,and were building a coop that's 16'x4'.I think it's way too small.Should we make a "SkyWay"walk where they could walk across to another seperate room?I don't know.Should I expand it??Please help!! I don't know what to do.
Hi,I was inside of my four hens run and coop getting their eggs,and scraping out all the poo and leftover hay.Well,there's a spot on the other side of the run/fencing border where my geese are laying eggs,the whole setup of the coop and barn is barn/shed.There's a place where one of the nests...
Hey,I was wondering,do chickens get bored just scratching at dirt all day?I would think I should put like crickets,mealworms,sunflower seeds,ect. so that they have more to scratch at.I heard that in the Winter,You should hang a thing of cabbage about a couple inches above their heads so that...

Well,This is my first ever batch of Bhrama chicks I have ever raised
Well,first I need to learn how to put pics on my posts
But,You can see the pics on my B.Y.C page.

Ok,we're almost done with the coop,I was wandering,should I put like a linoleum flooring,or what should I do?I think if I put a certain flooring on,it'll make cleaning much easier than a normal plywood floor.
Any suggestions??
