    Little Giant Hatch Along

    So of the 15 buff orp. eggs that I put into lock down, 7 hatched, 3 more pipped but never hatched. 1 of the 7 had a shell piece stuck to its back and even though I removed it, it still only lived 2 days.

    Painted coop interiors

    Quote: The inside of ours is white too. It seams every time a color was left over it was white. It does make the inside brighter. I did spend some and paint the out side tan, just to blend in some with e woods behind it.
