    finalized plans need review, pre-build

    I see some of you have built your own coops, I live in the Mojave Desert and we have strong winds more often than not. Can anyone recommend something that will help shelter them from the sand blow but not hold in the heat?

    HELP chick having hard time

    I was told by a feed store about the gator aid. I just gave her some grits, not a lot, and she is up walking a little and she did poop a little. She is chirping better so I am hopeful this will work. I will keep your recipe handy. Thanks.

    yolk color

    Some of my egg yolks are looking more red than orange. My chickens are mutts so I can't give you a breed. I have never had this happen before. Does anyone have any ideas? Or are they so orange they just look red?
