    How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

    I’m curious to know if I’m having a problem. My first 6 hens started laying on July 3rd at exactly 20 weeks. However the eggs appear to be small. It’s there a problem or is it because they just begin laying? I started them on Lonestar 20% layer feed and I have been adding 10% of the Lonestar...

    Daytime rats eating chicken feed. Not allowed to use rodenticide in my area due to owls, Hawks, coyotes and domestic dogs of course.

    After getting advice from users here I decided to try this option! It works pretty well because I had the same problem. The rats come day and night! I put bricks on top of the milk crates to keep the chickens from tipping it over if they happen to jump on top. So far this has been working very...

    Rats

    I’m doing things around here a little different. It’s aggravating when they set my cameras off so I do what I can to rid them.

    Rats

    The problem is not them getting feed from the feeder! I never saw rats around until I installed the feeder. I’m beginning to think it’s the mobile RV trailer that my neighbors have and only uses it for storage. Being we get plenty of hurricanes here in Southeast Texas I thought they were...

    Rats

    I installed a run-chicken F80 BT feeder inside our chicken coop. Now it appears that it has captured the attention of rats and I just don’t actually know what I should do about this situation. I’m requesting help from others here that may have had this problem. Thank you all so much.

    What breed are these chickens

    They were 1 week old when I received them. This is another photo from that day. Not very clear due to the heat lighting.

    What breed are these chickens

    Hello everyone, I was wondering if someone could help me figure out the breed of these chickens. I received them from a purchase my wife made on her mail route and she misplaced the receipt. I called the Feed Store and they are unable to tell me the breed being they sell so many different types...

    Are my chickens safe if we seldom see any predators

    I’m taking the advice from the each of you. I’ll call it bulletproof on the coop! I’ll improve the entire coop with hardware cloth and put it from inside to cover beneath the bottom going to the outside surrounding. I already have Arlo3 cameras on the front and rear. We can see completely around...

    Are my chickens safe if we seldom see any predators

    My wife and I built a hoop coop for our 11 chickens. Here in Port Arthur, Texas we live inside city limits. Very seldom we see a possum or raccoon. We use an automatic run chicken door with the timer set for opening and closing. So far we haven’t had any problems, however our surrounding...
