Thanks for this.. The more I thought about it, we decided it was best just to dispatch the bird. Since it was a meat bird, if we kept it around just to keep around, it eventually would eat itself too fat, which then causes more problems. And like you said, even if I can't see signs of...

Quick question for you all dealing a Fox bite on one our meat birds... I have the care handled.. We have it cleaned up and its working on healing. Still a bit of an odor to it, but such is life. It doesn't look infected of anything, so that seems positive.. Since this is a meat bird, one...

Thanks all for the responses and sorry for me being slow to say thanks. I didn't have thread notifications turned on.. I am going to separate them for a bit with some chicken wire, but have them in the same box. Hopefully, being in there together for a week or so will get them used to each...

Question about introducing flocks.. Once they are old enough, we are able to introduce them no problems.. We have done it a couple times, no problems there. I am more curious about chicks.. Here is the scenario. I ordered my new round of chicks last month, due in May 6. However, someone...

Sorry...I always forget about the search and I wrote that as I was running out the door to run the dog and grab some pallets. I got 13 of them on the first trip, so that should keep me busy this afternoon. Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk

Here is a question....Anyone have any good plans for a pallet coop? I have access to literally hundreds of pallets.. that's free wood. I always dismissed the idea of using them because changing them to fit the plan in my head always seemed more difficult than starting from scratch. Sent from...

Thanks for this, but unfortunately, I am up in Maine, so I don't think the person who built yours will be able to help out.. I went and checked on prices of shed vs other things at Lowes last night.. I guess once the weather passes through New England, it is time to dig out my hammer and get...

Thanks for that suggestion.. I will start the search tonight..

Thanks.. so just the main posts..

Here is a quick little question...that would cut some costs.. On my original pricing that I was figuring out, that was all for pressure treated wood. Is that what I want to use? I have a feeling the answer should be no, as the chemicals might hurt the girls if they start pecking at the...

Thanks all for your replies and suggestions. This is pretty much what I wanted to hear to help motivate me to build one. Like I said in the original post, if buying a complete kit, with free shipping, is only $100 more, something has to give, and obviously quality is it.. My original plan was...

I am sure this question gets asked a TON here, but I figure, why not, lets ask again.. I might have a little more info that helps with a decision.. To build, or to buy..thats my dilemma. Currently, I just inherited 6 hens (2 of them bantams), and I think thats probably about as big as the...
