I built my chickens penthouse for $300. Got all the wood for free. The cost was in the roll roofing, hardware cloth (which is a must. Not chicken wire). And the hi she's and latches. It is 16x6. The coop is 4x6. It is 7ft tall. Hope this helps. [/IMG][/IMG]
I bought 8 chicks from TSC. Two appear to be cockerels. They are about 6 weeks old. When can I introduce two more hens to my flock. I'm gonna get rid of one rooster and keep the other for the time being and see how it goes. Thanks
I bought 8 pullets from TSC and all are doing great. They are about 5weeks old and two of the white ones I noticed have rather large combs then the rest. Is this a sign they are roosters? They do seem to be a little bigger than the rest. I bought four white and four red. Not sure of the breeds...
