This is my ugly urban coop. It started off as a dog house in 2001. In the beginning it housed 10 pullets. I added an addition after a friend hatched 6 chicks.
Some of the girls. 2 RIR and 8 BOs.
Inside.
Nest boxes. Lil ones at the top. (Can someone tell me the breeds)?
Roosts.
Addition...
Finally got the run done. They seem to be at the pop door when they hear me coming into the run. They fly out lol. I lock them in everynight but I still plan to get some hardware cloth for the bottom soon.
Whew!!!! Thanks I thought I was doing something wrong. The two oldest (Molly and Myrtle) are Rhode Island Reds. I have 8 BOs that arent even a week old yet.
I got my BO's delivered today.I ordered 6 but got 8 healthy and active babies! I am soooo excited!!! My next breed will be Isa Browns.
This is Molly and Myrtle today.
I know Chickapooh23. I have been addicted since July of last year and it didn't help finding this site in september. lol. I think I will have more by summer. See there I go.
I already have two coops that I am working on. One is a converted dog house 7'x4'x4" and a playhouse 4'x3'x5'.
I ordered 6 Buff Orpingtons on March 4th from Mypetchicken.com. They should be here the week of the 23rd. I went to Destiny Farm in Brighton on March 6th and couldn't resist getting two Rhode Island Reds. I named them Molly (back) and Myrtle (front).
