Couldn't you have one that only releases in the morning, doesn't close at night? Or you could put the closing time so late that you could shut them in before that time. Just a thought. Tuck them in at night and sleep in in the morning. I am getting a laugh thinking how high tech it...
So I have a Silkie roo (fluffy), he is about 16 weeks old. He is gorgeous and the only roo I kept out of four because he is such a sweetie. Well, now he doesn't shut up but I want to try to keep him. This all depends on the neighbors. But today I noticed my RIR (calm girl) which is only...
See, fluffy butt looks like a roo to me. He has a walnut comb right? From what I understand that's the norm. My fluffy has just a normal sized and looking one and smaller waddles.

You are probably right to some extent, but I am now also attracting more flies than 4 months ago when I didn't have chickens. Either way I am helping seek and destroy!
Ok, can't figure out how to add a link from my phone. But they are made by a company called Rescue. If you google fly trap bags you should find them. They make many products and you can search for retailers!
I just wanted to post to anyone who was wondering what to do about flies. I have been using the bags that you cut the top and pull out the entrance area and add the water to the "fly bait" and the are insane! I am going through one a week. I have no flies but a bag full of dead ones. They...
