    Room to Expand or No?

    Hey! Thank you, I know everyone has different situations and different things that work for them. My run is actually covered, that is a picture from when we were building. It is partly covered with tin and then the rest is covered with chicken wire. My chickens only stay in the run on days when...

    Room to Expand or No?

    If I did add another coop it was going to be on the end. I would probably extend my run as well. My run is currently 8x20 and the chickens do free range just about every day depending on the weather. Thank you for your idea, since I am still new at this, I am open to ideas.

    Room to Expand or No?

    True! I don't know exactly what to do, I may have to cancel my order if I can't get my husband on board.

    Room to Expand or No?

    I have had chickens for about a year now and I absolutely love it. My husband and I built our own coop. Its a 4x8x8. We started out with 10 chicks but I ended up with 2 roosters and one had to go live somewhere else so now we have 9. Anyways, the point that I am trying to reach is that I want...

    Thank you! I will see if they can continue getting along before I decide to get rid of one of them.

    Help identifying whether I have 2 roosters or a hen with a large comb

    I keep them confined unless my husband or myself are at home. I usually free range them every chance I get. There hasn't been any issues between them but I don't want it to come to that if I can help it...

    I knew that it was how they mated, but it is really only a split second. I guess he's technically getting the job done! Haha. Thank you for the information, I was so unsure of the crowing hen, I was trying to give the hatchery the benefit of the doubt since one of the Speckled's was supposed to...

    I hope to hatch some. Will it be a shock for the rest of them if I get rid of one of the boys? I don't want to traumatize them too much since they are so close to beginning to lay eggs.

    Thank you, do you think that it will be okay to have two males?

    Help identifying whether I have 2 roosters or a hen with a large comb

    I will try to get one tomorrow, the weather here in NC has been yucky and rainy for the past 2 weeks... Do you think that it is a bad thing to have 2 roosters in a flock of 10 total?

    Hey y'all, I am new to raising chickens so this has been a whirlwind adventure to say the least. I ordered sexed chickens and received them at the beginning of July. They are currently 18 or 19 weeks and are starting to come into their own. Initially I ordered a Speckled Sussex Rooster and a...
