WOW, I had no clue all these comments were here. We lived in DFW when we made this coop. It does get cold but normally not below 15. When it got cold we put alight in the house through the little roof on the top (it opened up as well). That keeps everything nice and warm for the girls. We DO...

Awesome... I love your checkbook covers. I am going to have to try that. I have a pink bag that I have my DE in, I need to go get it.

you know I was thinking instead of sewing down the triangles, if they kind of get in the way perhaps they could be glued down... That would be another options surely making it easier to keep them flat... I think this is how I am going to do mine from now on.

Thanks for all the replies. I am going to try the rat traps under the milk crates. I was afraid my chickens might get caught in them so that is why I haven't trued that yet. Squirrels are currently the biggest problem I have so it could be much worse. And yes I do live in the city. My oldest has...

we live in town and I can't really stick poison out for them since it's really not in my nature to kill them that way, because I really don't wanna kill anything else (like dogs, cats or even other birds). I suppose my only option is a small rodent trap? Squirrels are a serious PITB but so many...

I had no clue that squirrels would steal my chickens eggs. I don't know how to make them stop either. Any suggestions.

Quote: This was the hardest part when I did mine too because the material is so thick. I do think it is still the best way to do it though. It is making me want to buy a different sewing machine. I think I need a jeans needle for this project.

Updated in first post.

the girls survived the night! I am grateful for that. ow just to heal their wounds. I am a little concerned about Ebony healing and then having trouble laying her eggs. Is this a possibility? It really looks like they just skinned her bottom with a couple of puncture wounds but she doesn't seem...

according to the law in town the one dog I found in the coop with a chicken in his mouth is considered dangerous, now, but the other one can be released to her owner when he/she comes to pick them up (or I should say if). They will have to go to court and prove that their dogs can no longer get...

I am very fortunate I have a friend who has that electrolyte solution who came over to help doctor up my girls. We are using diluted grapefruit seed extract to wash the wounds every hour for now and they are only drinking the electrolyte solution, plus a diluted aspirin in their water as well...

2 small dogs got into my backyard and into my coop today. 2 of my chickens escaped unharmed, 1 has a would I am sure she will recover from, the last one was inside the nest box when the dogs came in and I am not so sure how she will do. They tore her rump up really bad and by the time I could...

oh now I really want one of those horse feed bags! My daughter loves horses and that would be perfect for her (she's only 8 lol)

not sure my threads mess up a little too depending on how many times I go over it. I have to sew really slow on the top and the handles, but I used my serger for the bottom originally so that helped ease it a bit. My only suggestion is make sure you have a nice heavy weight thread and then sew...
