Can I use half-inch Hardware cloth for floor of henhouse in tractor?
On a tractor all you really might need is a 2x4 mesh on the bottom. This will allow them to still scratch the ground but not tear your yard up as much as they can with a full open bottom. If you have an elevated house portion I would stick with the 1/2" mesh floor. A wire brush is all you... -
Coop size for 14 Layers?
A 6x8 or 6x10 coop would be plenty of space for 14 hens. You would only need 3 or 4 nest boxes at the most. 4-7 hens will share one box. 4sq.ft. per bird depends as much on the breed as anything. Back in the day we gave less than half that amount and commercially they are only required to... -

My 55 new chicks arrived today! ALL DEAD
Ideal is a great hatchery and will take care of you. Often times if the chicks get chilled in shipping they can get sick and will often die within 3-5 days of arriving. If you are ordering bantams it is best to wait until spring as the chicks are much more delicate and it is harder for them to...- MobileChickenCoops.com

New coop in Houston, TX. How cold is too cold for chickens?
We live in the Texas Hill Country and I have open air coops because of the summer heat and have no problem with my hens in the cold. In fact they will often be out in the cold or occasional snow pecking and scratching for food. In Houston the heat will be your biggest enemy. however you build... -
open air coops
It has been my experience both having spent a few years in Indiana and the rest of my life back home in Texas that an open air coop provides adequate shelter in the cold as long as the back of the coop faces the north to northwest. My chickens will often times be out of the coop when the temps... -
