    Small coop in winter - heat options? Help!

    Thank you so much for taking your time and writing those responses! I do appreciate it so much! There is a ventilation on the top, between the roof and the run and I keep it open all the time. I haven't noticed any smell of ammonia, but the window was sort of wet on inside, so I guess it...

    Small coop in winter - heat options? Help!

    So fall is here and I've read a lot about winter with chickens, but everybody talks about big coops and mine is small (plenty of space for my 4 banties, well 3 as of today). This is my first year (I got my small flock in August). The coop is made from pretty thin cedar wood, I painted it, so it...

    So confused with this chicken, please help!

    This "calling" started yesterday, the Polish one is dead for almost a month now and the little roo is gone for a week. I'm a newbee and I didn't know than hens can crow, but I spent all morning on YouTube and apparently some do make sounds like crowing. But I still had doubts hence posting here...

    Any ideas on the breed/mix?

    I've got this pretty lady, who has some severe damage from the rooster at her previous place (her head and back is missing pretty much all feathers). She is about 1 - 1.5 yo and I was told that she should lay brown eggs. She is a bantam, a bit on a larger side. Got accepted by my small flock...

    Golden Lace Polish hen on rooster?

    Oh guys, this is really funny! I've got doubts about miss Bella's gender because my husband told me he heard her crowing. So today I watched her closely and I heard some crowing, but it was my other chicken! I was sure that she is a she... Miss Polly, seems to be mister Polly and has to look...

    Golden Lace Polish hen on rooster?

    Thank you for warm welcome! I'm so new to this. So I've tried to snap a close-up portrait and I see a bit of pinkish color, but not red. What do you think? I still hope she is a she, because it's my favorite chicken, follows me everywhere and it took me a while to find her/him. And we can't keep...

    Golden Lace Polish hen on rooster?

    I'm new to this forum and looked through several similar posts and still can't figure out if our miss Bella is He or She... I've got her couple of weeks ago and she should be 4-5 months now (hatched in May). I have only 4 chickens and they are all really friendly with each other, so I don't see...
