Ours Australian Shepard is great with all animals. She lets me know when one of the girls is not where they belong, eating my hostas. Then she will help me get them back. We have a cockatiel that has run of the house and other small animals in the past and I have no concern. She use to...

Quote: That's Awesome! I'm in Pleasant Grove and have two Buff Orpingtons and two Rhode Island Reds. They are about four weeks old now so they are going a little crazy in their brooder. I'm going to convert an old dog house to a coop. I've got to get on with it soon because my girls are...

I have a 5 gallon bucket feeder, that has a PVC fill tube that is working great. I started feeding them mash and they picked through it wasting more then I wanted on to the ground. I switch to pellets and no more waste. It cost about $10 to make, the feed states dry and clean. I refill it...

Looks like the adolescent males I have wandering around my house with hair in patches starting to poke out in all kinds of directions. My 8 to 12 week old chicks fit right in with my boys and looked just like yours! Remarkable how "ugly" they are as adolescents when they were cute babies and...

I love my Pullet shut door it has worked flawlessly for 6 months. Thank you for the easy to use reliable product. Becky

Sutherlands Lumber has 16% protein layer pellets for $11.99. It is from a CO mill. I bought a bag to try.

It appears that weight is one of the concerns. To gain weight fat is best at doing that. It has 9 calories per gram, protein and carbs have 4 cals per gram. For healing you need protein. For humans we do calorie packing, add fat to everything. Whole milk products are excellent, protein and...

If you do want to remove it, get spray contact glue at the craft store after dark when they are all in spray the glue in it and remove it the next morning. I would to protect my family.

Congratulations on the egg. It is such a fulfilling sight. Mine have been laying for about a month. Now I'm getting six eggs a day, six are laying and one is still not.

I don't think critters could get into my Pullet shut door. It was easy to install, four screws. The programing did demand one early morning trip to the coop, but I have not change it since I installed it in April. You can open and shut the door without changing the programing. Or I should...

Quote: Thanks for the recommendation about calcium. They have had oyster shell free choice since they started laying. I will add calcium to their feed for a couple of days.

My door, the Pullet-Shut, (maybe that is what you are calling the chicken door) closes like a regular door and is on a gear mechanism. It is flush with the frame. I don't think anything could get it open unless they use a tool such as a screw driver and significant force to break it. But, I...

I'm a newbie to.. But, one of my 20 week olds was laying soft shelled eggs and acting egg bond. I was standing outside with her and out dropped an intact soft egg in the yard as she was free ranging. Then she started acting funny, ruffled, distressed not moving. She had egg dripping from her...

I have two EE, has been laying for about a week, started at 20 weeks. She had been doing the squat for a couple of weeks. The other of the same age no squat yet, I'm not convinced it is a hen. My ee that is laying wants desperately to lay in the bush, so she is in the tractor Coop/run until...

Quote: I to have a pullet-shut door and love it. I bought my battery from cabela's for $30 and have it charged with a solar panel from Bass pro shop that was also $30. It has run for 6 month now with no problems. They are on a timing mechanism so no problem with shade closing the door. It...

From the article, that was poor journalism, nor the health department report it was not even clear that it was IFA feed. This was an assumption in the article. The health department's report was good science. The reason they pulled the report is they do not want anything out there that may...

Quote: A squirt bottle works well for herding chickens, just ask my neighbors!

After looking at other options I installed the Pullet Shut door on my Stagecoach Tractor. I looked at other designs and the drapery motor types, would have been about the same cost with the motor, timer, door, etc. I needed a door that swung open. easy to install, four screws I have been using...
