    My Coops

    Took a couple months, but I finally finished a couple of coops that I promised my wife. Still have to add a run to the right side of the breeder coop, but got a little time for that.

    New Pullets look pretty horrible

Before I could go buy from a good farm a friend of my wife brought over 6 "free" 12 week old pullets while I was at work. I got home and these little birds look horrible. They have feces on them, lots of bald...
