    cold

    I have four. They all roost together. I am just worried because they are my first chickens and they have been doing so well. I don't want to do anything that would hurt them. Thanks

    breaking point on cold weather

    Just wondering what everyone does. At what temp do you let it get down before you add a heat lamp to the coop in cold weather? This question is for full grown chickens. And also what part of the country are you in?

    D.E. Question

    So what brand does everyone use? Where do you get it or can I just order on-line. I am just trying to be proactive. My chicks are mainly in the brooder but I do let them out to run around in the yard and catch bugs.

    My babies are here!

    Mine started getting those feathers at about 4 days. So it's safe to say they are about that old. Mine are a week and a day old today. For the past two days I have been taking them out to scratch around and they seem to love it. I am always standing with them. I have a bag of treats that I shake...
