    How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

    We have consistently been getting a dozen eggs a day. Including our 3 Bantam hens laying daily. Today we got 15. It's snowing and cold but the heated coop must be doing a good job of keeping my chicks happy! ;)

    8 today. But the temps have been in the low 30s high 20s at night and only low 40s to high 30s during the day. So. I kind of expect there to be a drop in production our at the very least a slowing in laying.

    Should there be water available *inside* the coop?

    We have a feeder and watered inside our chicken room. However, the chickens can come and go as they please since they have a huge fenced area. They Can go out and drink from the small duck pond and eat bugs and snippets or come inside and eat feed and drink from the waterer. Their choice. :)...

    Naughty Bantam rooster !

That has seemed to cure the issue, as to who's the boss when it comes to everyone, but that one little stinker. She is the only...

    Rooster acting outta sorts.

    Thanks, we'll get him set up in iso. Any suggestions on the cause? It's Been getting into the mid 30s to mid 20s here at night and the chickens well NOT go in at night. They like to sleep outside with the ducks. We were kind of wondering if maybe he just got too cold.
