    Help! Did I Buy Dud Hens??

    I wasn't disclosed age. The man we bought them from didn't speak any English so I had a hard time communicating, Today when we went back to the swap he wasn't there but we got names and numbers this time.

    Help! Did I Buy Dud Hens??

    I don't normally feed bread. We had a couple stale pieces but they really didn't eat it so I threw it out. Their diet is as I posted in the OP. ;)

    Help! Did I Buy Dud Hens??

    The barn is very light inside. I'm scared to let them out because we have so many coyotes and owls. We will try to make a run this weekend. This is a temporary coop for us. We have plans for a better coop but I just need my husband to have the time to help. Maybe I could let them out supervised?

    Emotionally Unstable Poults?

    Ok good! :) Mine are underfoot a lot too. They circle our 14 foot pool and I swear they are trying to get in. I'm having a lot of trouble feeding them. They seem to only want chick starter & it is medicated. I plan to eat these so I'm not wanting them to have the medications in it. What kind do...
