    Easter Egger club!

    Sadly D&B Supply also sold me "Auracanas" and "Americanas" when they were really Easter Eggers. They also sold us two roos when they were to be pullets. So, our first set we ended up with an EE who lays pink eggs and has no tail (see picture). She is stunning and a bit goofy. Her feathers...

    Our chicken run and duplex coop...aka Nancy's Nest with the rope lighting. this was at 8am and it turns on at 5am, gor now,then turns off at 8:30am. This works ggreat. rope is thick and lights stay cool to the touch hut bright enough to light the run and wake them up to keep egg production up.

    Rope lights in chicken coop work great!!!

    Are the lights to go in the coop or can the go in the run? We have a duplex and long run so we strung them on the run tonight. However, they still went to bed when the sun went down even though run lights are on. Will they eventually adjust and stay on the run until the lights go off?
