My SLW are over 2 weeks old now and I can see that some have a small ridge on their combs, almost like the beginning of a single comb. Others have a widening flat area on their combs. Are the ridged ones pullets?
I'm converting a 12' x 12' barn stall to a coop. It has a dirt floor now. What do you folks recommend for bedding in this case? I know concrete would probably be best, but I'm not looking to spend that much money. Just figuring out what would be the most sanitary and easy to clean bedding.
