I was just wondering if anyone make there own breed of chickens... Is there any reason to do this other than to see what you might get. We have EE, Buff O, white leghorns, tera tin. How should we mix them?

The black plastic is for an automatic door just to make sure it doesn't get wet. I live in the south so I guess I need to change out the side vents for bigger one. On the front vent it has wood trim around it and in the winter I put a Plexiglas over it that slides into it.

Yesterday the outside temp was about 100 and the inside coop temp was 94-96.

I have noticed my chicken panting inside the coop. Is there anything I can do to help control the temperature, like cut more windows or vents? Here are some picture to help with some ideas. The coop faces south so the back is to the north. Its has house vents on each side that are always open...

I have one hen that wants to be a mom but I have 4 nesting boxes right next to each other. I don't know when she is going out to eat/drink. But when she does she goes from box 2 to box 3 or sometimes box 1. How do I keep her going to the correct box? Should I make a small cage just for her? I...

Conflicting answers hummmm.....

OK here is my idea. Where the post is for the outside run I want to fence off of it to the back to give them a 30x40ish. Would that be enough for all my 19 chickens now? I would like to add another 18 or so chickens to a total of 38. The total run now is 30x85. Also, it looks like they have...
