    Seriously... Squirrels?

    I had no clue that squirrels would steal my chickens eggs. I don't know how to make them stop either. Any suggestions.

    Roosting in the tree

    Ok so the last couple days the girls have decided to roost in the tree during their time out of the run area.

When I came back out he had already rounded them up (not that he needs to do that) and I thought to myself...

    New here and I have a few questions

    First I want to say, thanks for having this board(to those who started it) and thanks for posting chicken lovers. I am in the learning stages of getting ready to own and raise chickens.
