Every morning I find a large puddle of (almost) clear liquid from one of our hens - and a spattering of dark green poo.. but it's the liquid that's bothering me and I can't find it listed as a symptom anywhere. Otherwise she seems bright enough, although I suspect she's not been laying any eggs...
We decided to use sheet metal - at an angle so there's no need for netting.. this is in two parts and unhooks easily from the wall so
is easy to lift out and give a good scrub when needed.
Thanks! Hope you make it to Scotland one day.. I've been here in Sweden 20 yrs (no complaints, bit cold in winter though!) but visit Scotland as often as I can.
Yet another newbie!
I'm Scottish (but live in central Sweden) and at long last am well on the way to keeping chickens.
We've been busy sorting out a hen house and will hopefully have everything ready for the first occupants come May.
In the mean time I'm spending as much time as possible...
