    I have 4 rsl I think 3 of them are laying and 1 is not!! Should I offer growers pellets and layers pellets until I know all 4 are laying?

    6 week olds trained to go to coop at dusk!

    I have been letting my chicks out of their coop the past few days for a few hours in the late afternoon and i've been puting them back each night, I thought i'd leave them to it tonight to see what they would do and the clever little chicks put themselves to bed!! I'm sooo proud

    6 week olds trained to go to coop at dusk!

    Yeah the coop has a window. I will be letting them out to free range but they are only just nearly 6 weeks so I am keeping them in the coop for a few more weeks as they need to get used to it as I must lock them in there on a night as I wouldn't trust the wildlife

    Teaching them to return to the coop

    I don't mind locking them in their coop at night with no acess to their pen but I couldn't bring myself to do it for 7 whole days and nights!! Me and the kids like to have playtime with them too much

    Chicken breed

    I didn't realise I would love them so much, they are lovely!! I just liked the idea of having them in my garden and having fresh eggs but I can't believe how much I love them!! They are so loving and funny too!! I gave them their first treat today of worms from the garden, it was comical to watch :D

    6 week olds trained to go to coop at dusk!

    I put my chicks in their coop 2 days ago at 5 weeks old. I left open the door into the run so they could explore but when it comes to night time they stay in the pen and not the coop, me and my daughter have had to put them in ourselves each night and I feel so bad as they sound really scared :(...

    Teaching them to return to the coop

    I put my 5 week old chicks in their coop 2 days ago but I didn't close the door into the pen and I have had to move them from their pen each night, When I do it they sound as if they are scared and I feel really bad :( If i block the pen off for a week will that solve this problem?
