    ANYONE USE A COOKIE TIN WATER HEATER?

I adopted Hen this past July and purchased 2 pullets shortly after. The Spice Girls, Ginger and Sugar, are 21 weeks. It was just like the forum said.....red comb and...

    Items to Repurpose for Coops and Run/Tractor!

    We are new to owning chickens and were planning on building a tractor for our girls, but hadn't given it much thought as we just got done renovating our shed to use part as our coop. I was driving one day and passed a snowmobile dealer with free wood shelling they use for the sleds out by the...
