    Texas Heat Effecting Egg Laying

    We too live in Texas and had the same experience but things haven't improved. It's been a month since the extreme heat ended and we're still getting 3 eggs per day out of 30 hens. Does it take this long to recovery?

    What makes a coop "Fort Knox" predator proof?

    Just the 1 with black feathers. The other 3 look very similar. It's amazing how much they change almost on a daily basis.

They are only 6 weeks old so to early to tell . A local feed store owner told me if I got them from a Hatchery we won't win any contest (kids...

    Keeping cold tolerant chooks in hot climate.

    I bought 3 breeds of cold hardy not heat hardy chooks Silver Laced Wyandottes, Golden Laced Wyandottes and salmon faverolle for Texas. I know what your thinking and yes I am a doofus. Since it's currently winter in Texas our girls will be nearly 9 months before the 90 degree days arrive and...
