If your using the pro rib roofing from menards. The mfg actually suggest putting the screws along the base next to the peak. Not in the actual peak of the rib. It's a little but different than the regular corrugated roofing panels.
Emergency help!! This is my cuckoo maran this morning.. The was a soft egg stuck on her bum, we wiped of off and this is there.. looks like it's still attached and pretty firm..what do I do? She can still poo and is only 5 months old.
I have 8 girls that are about 10 weeks old. Noticed the last couple days that my cuckoo maran will make a weird clucking noise. Almost sounds like a goose honking. Doesn't always do it, just every now and then. Are they like kids and as they get older the voice changes. Also noticed my SLW...
My girls have a 2x4 turn wide side down. Nice and long. They other night I noticed two if the crammed up against the window balancing on a skinny little ledge. There was feathers and ties poking through the hardware cloth. So I build a nice shelf up there with a 2x6 flat side own. Now all 8...
after getting up twice in the night to check on them..and seeing them sleeping on the perch, i relieved they were just fine.. I think I was more worried than they were! LOL.
so my girls have been spending the days outside since it's been 65-70 lately. Tonight is going to get down to 45... all next week looks like highs in the 80's with lows in the mid 50's. I was going to move them out tomorrow permanently, but would it be ok to leave them out tonight, or is that...
sitting here at the computer listening to the girls chirping away.. They are 5 weeks old..I think I'm gonna miss the sounds of their chirps when the move to the coop outside. Might need to invest in a laptop with wireless and hang out with them.
One thing that works great is to just put some if there feed in your hand and leave your hand in a while. I did that with mine and they acted like they were getting something special. ;)
I'd say she just growing slower. I have 8 girls that at 4-5 weeks. My silver laced Wyandotte is the smallest of the group, but I think she's the boss. This last week she's really started to feather out. My cuckoo Marans and welsummer look like monsters compared to the rest.
I have 2 that are 4 weeks old and 6 that are3 weeks. None of them are interesting in treats at all. Tried several different things and no takers so far.
