    Help! Chickens won’t stop eating eggs!

    Hi, my chickens keep eating their eggs. I built a new roll away nesting box but I can’t get them to lay in there. I have also filled some egg shells with dish soap and cinnamon, which puts them off for a few days, then they’re right back at it. What can I do???

    Questions about heat lamps???

    Hey guys! I was wondering what the consensus is about having a heat lamp inside my coop for a few of the coldest weeks?? It says the temperature will drop to about 15 F / -10 C at night for the next couple of weeks. I don’t know if that’s too cold for them. I just put one in this morning to...

    How do I make my chickens get along?

    Hey 😊. I have just recently bought a few different breeds (Wyandotte , Araucana and Copper Maran) varying ages, but all under 5 months. At the moment, it seems I have to keep most of them separate from each other because they fight. Will I eventually be able to keep them all together?
