    Need to move the coop... Ideas?

    Buy post taller than width of building, three should be enough post, and roll, you can probably use an eye bolt and cable or strap through the framing underneath and pull it with a mower or tractor, moving post as you go, . That's how I move them all here, even onto trailers that way. But a...

    Coop at Hensley's Settlement in Cumberland Gap National Park

    the vertical boards are the waste from things such as the barn behind, because it was only a coop it was OK to use vertically as it was only waste. which equals free coop supplies, something we all love still today.

    broody hen that I don't want broody

    it helps to keep her on a wire floor, no nesting at all. I use a 2' by 2' square cage hanging from the coop ceiling, with only a roost, water, and feed, after seven days or the first egg I will return the hen to the flock and watch. A broody jail, and it will break them.

    What is wrong with Goliath's Comb? Pics!

    I was wondering what was causing comb damage on my flock, then found it is the dividers on my antique galvanized hanging feeder. It works great still for the EE's but no std comb chickens allowed at it anymore, it caught on their comb when they back out.
