Thank you to everybody who answered and gave me lots to think about😃
Yes, we are also looking at concrete however it is much more expensive.
Those grid systems sound great. When I say the driveway washed out, we have one foot deep, one foot wide ditches where we had rivers running through the...
Hello everybody,
I have a driveway question.
After the last torrential rainfall a couple of weeks ago, part of our gravel driveway washed out. We had been considering asphalt for the driveway and courtyard area between the garage and the house, thinking it would be more durable than gravel...
I have a ten year old hen and her legs are similar, but I just put it down to her age. I have only had her for a year (none of my other hens have it) and in that time, her legs almost seem to have improved, so now I wonder if she did have scaly leg mites?
With that said, their dust baths have...
We have about the same temperatures here in Kimberley, Ontario. I have two Cozy Coop radiant heaters on adjacent walls, which gives us plus 10-12° more in the coop. They are about one foot up off the floor and my elder chicken sits right next to it. Your hens should be fine with the ceramic...

She can be quite broody and last week I found an egg in the box that I didn’t recognize.
It was a very light cream egg and my Barnevelders...

My hens are generally good but I...
This post was very helpful, thank you, as I currently have two 4 week old chicks, a Silkie and a Frizzle.
This is my first time with Silkies and I am also trying to sex mine. My little Frizzle I already suspect to be male. He has a little mohawk that could be the beginning of streamer...
My husband just hooked up our coop camera also and I love it!
No more wasted trips down to the coop. I can look on my iphone and can instantly see if they knocked over the water, or if they have all put themselves to bed at night.
Of course, predators were the reason we first bought it but I...
