    Cleaning my coop with horse pellets

    I have a concrete floor in my coop and have been using pine shavings. If I switch to horse stall pellets I've heard to wet it first? And how deep a layer should there be? Thanks.

    Unsexed mixed dual purpose from Hoovers Hatchery. About 6 or 7 weeks old.

    Thanks. They are bigger than the others I got so I couldn't figure it out.

    Unsexed mixed dual purpose from Hoovers Hatchery. About 6 or 7 weeks old.

    I'm wondering what breed this is. I THINK I have 3 roosters of whatever it is. Thank you.

    One of two 4 year old heirloom hens just died yesterday, can I integrate 5 week old babies I have now?

    I've had my 15 8 week old chicks penned next to my 4 year old hens for 2 weeks. Yesterday morning I made an opening big enough for the chicks to go through but too small for the hens. A couple chicks have ventured in with the older ones but they are chased back into their little area. My...

    Best coop light with timer? No remotes!

    I got a led light bulb with a built it timer off Amazon. It can stay on for 2, 4 or 6 hours before it turns off then comes on the same time every night. I have it to give them a couple hours of light in the winter so they keep m laying eggs longer. I have a light socket on the ceiling of my coop.

    Holy EGG!!

    Wow! I have 4 cinnamon queens that have been laying about a month. Their eggs are still quite small! I had to use 6 eggs to equal 4 large in a muffin recipe. I'm wondering if they are ever going to get bigger. I get 3 or 4 eggs a day from my 4 girls.

    All Six Hens Are Gone. What Killed Them?

    I had chickens year ago and never had a problem except an owl tried to pick a hen up. Of course then raccoons were hunted for their fur. Now we are overrun with the little buggers. They destroyed our sweet corn crop a few years ago. I appreciate your advice. Thanks so much!

    All Six Hens Are Gone. What Killed Them?

    Any advice on more protection is welcome. Electric fence maybe is all I can think of.

    All Six Hens Are Gone. What Killed Them?

    I had a raccoon kill 18 of my young 12 week old chicks. My hubby caught the momma because she couldn't get back in after we put chicken wire over the top of the run after that but then the next night she came back with her 3 kids and he watched them squeeze through a little 6" square opening...
