    I would want to know that too. @NorthwoodsChick i didn’t know all you had to buy was the monitor- is it light sensor too? I dig your handy work and creative painting. Really just a string to pull up a wooden door!? So simple..

    How Much to Feed Per Bird?

    How many birds do you have? Looks like two waterers and two feeders? I’ve been considering this style though also love the pvc pipe way too for rain capture for water with option to refill it with nipples and for their food with each bird having a hole to feed out of so no squabbles. Love to...

    Thank you. When you say both are you referring to having two? Or both as in two of the attachments kits? Do you think ducks can also get through this with easy as well?

    Colorado

    Great feedback and insight, thank you for taking the time to read and respond! Good point on the added moisture the ducks will add into the coop… I plan to Adobe cob the sides and bottom which will essentially be like “earth cement” plus adding a deep litter method I found very useful and clean...

    Frostbite Before and After Photos

    This is Poppy. We’ve been having below 0 and single digit temperatures for several days now. I’m wondering if her comb is getting in danger to frost bite? Ive added tons of bedding and a flap to their coop to lock in their heat as much as possible with allowing ventilation. She’s spoiled and...
