    Only breeding one roo and one hen

    Wondering how many of you when you decide to breed or mate only pure breeds, do you usually only put one hen of choice in with the rooster or do you usually put a few hens in there. Would it be okay to put only one hen that you want pure eggs from in there with him or is it better to put a few...

    how many cover their coop floor with linoleum?

    I'm moving my 7 week olds out to the new coop today. It is just an 8x12 shed with a plywood floor. I have been debating whether or not to cover it with linoleum tiles or not. I know this would help with cleanup, but is it necessary? Can I just put the pine shavings down on the plywood?

    Can I switch to medicated starter?

    I've been feeding non-medicated starter feed from TSC for my chicks first 2 1/2 weeks. I'm down to the end of the bag and i would like to switch to medicated starter. Would this harm their systems, and should I ween them onto it? Or can I just switch them over?

    small sore on chicks neck

    I noticed a small sore on one of my week old chicks. It looks like it is from pecking, but can't be sure. I just moved them to a larger brooder this morning, because they were outgrowing the old one. I'm thinking that this little one got pecked by one of the others. I have 20 week olds...Should...
