    post your chicken coop pictures here!

    I have a 30 by 30 foot run in front of it completed enclosed with welded wire. I built it for about 1200 not including shingles, because I had those from a left over job. I just could not see spending that same amount of money on something so little.

    Incubator Problems :(

    I leave one of the egg trays off so it lays in between 2 trays on the floor of the incubatory. I have a fan in mine so it is moving air all the time. I think I might just try to build my own and maybe buy one of those auto humidifiers for it.

    Incubator Problems :(

    I have one electronic thermometer in there and I have had 2 before. If I take the egg turner out it stays at the temp I set it to. I just thought if I went to an electronic temp controller it would turn power off to the incubator but the egg turn would still be plugged in giving off heat, so...

    Incubator Problems :(

    Question about incubators. I have a little Giant that has a fan in it and I just bought an egg turner for it. I have noticed that the temperature inside normally is where I set it at, at 99.5--100.5 for chicken eggs. I notice that the temperature will rise to 102.5 or so at times and then...

    Trigger or Spring Feeders

    My chickens figured out the watering nipples in 10 minutes, but this trigger thing has not worked. They must be stupid or something. I even added some aluminum foil around it to attract them and they still did not get it. So I ended up drilling a holes around the base of a 5 gallon bucket and...

    Trigger or Spring Feeders

    How long did it take your chickens to take to the trigger? I added that and my watering nipples at the same time. They took right to the watering nipples but have yet to figure out the triggers. I have a 5 gallon buck sitting on top of a stand I built with a hole so the trigger can stick...

    all who are hatching quail

    I was under the impression that I was getting a dozen +2 free eggs that had not been in an incubator. As I was leaving she said that 10 of them were on day 12 and the other 4 on day 2. So far I have had 8 quail hatch from the first 10 and two still show signs of life inside while the other 4...

    I really think the lady I got the eggs from was confused on what egg were on what day. I have a total of 14 eggs, 10 of which were on day 12 of incubation and the other 4 were on day two when I got them from here. 1 hatched on day 16 and died 3 days later. Then I had 2 more hatch on day 20, 3...
