Has anyone ever turned a wooden playhouse like this into a coop?

Can anyone tell the breed of this chick? The brown one. I got it from Murray McMurray hatchery as a mystery chick. Also is it too young to tell the gender?

Anyone know the gender of the two white ones? I don’t know the breed or how old. I think they are at least a month old.

They are 2 months old

Thanks. I’m not sure how old it is. I got it on the 28th of November it was really small chick. It’s grown so much. The picture above was just taken.

Can anyone help identify the breed of any of these? And if anyone can tell the gender on the chick too. Thanks.

I’m going to get some chicks and Muscovy ducklings and I’m not sure on what to feed them. Should I feed them both chick starter and then switch over to all flock feed?

It can get to about around 10. Sometimes less but not often.

Thanks for responding. Sounds great. I wanted to know if I put hardware cloth over the top would that let too much cold air in. It can get pretty cold here in the winter.

I’m getting a coop built. It’s 10x10 and I don’t know what I should do to give them enough ventilation. Im going to be putting 1 or 2 windows on it also. Should I put wood around the top and then right under the roof put hardware cloth?

I have a a 10x10 coop and I was thinking about giving them a large run. But since it would be so large I wasn’t sure about how to cover it. I was thinking about making a fence around the coop and to use welded wire. And also putting a hot wire around the bottom. The predators we have around here...

I am definitely going to add the plywood to the sides. But does anyone have any ideas for a roof? Something that would also keep out raccoons and opossum.

I was thinking about 5 hens. And how could I make the whole kennel into a coop?

I just got a new coop and also got a 10x10 dog kennel so I've been putting it together and I need ideas for a roof for the kennel and also any ideas for the coop would be great. I also need to know if I should put the roosts inside the coop in front of the nesting boxes or in the lower part in...

I have a 50 pound bag of medicated chick starter and I don't want it to go to waste. Is there anything I can do with it?

Thanks for responding. There hasn't been any bleeding just pecks then they run. And I have fixed the part the raccoon got in.

I got 2 barred rock chickens in May 1 of them died to a raccoon. So last Saturday I just picked up two 4 month old Buff Orpingtons and she's been pecking them and they just run away from her. I've been keeping them in a cage in the coop for three days. I let them out to eat grass and bugs and...

I have a hen and a rooster and I don't know if I should feed them starter/grower or feed them all flock. She hasn't starter laying yet. Thanks.

I don't know the age of them but it hasn't crowed yet and I noticed that one of them is darker and one is lighter.
