Who likes stinky poop? I most assuredly do not!
I started out feeding my chicks tucker milling medicated chicke starter in the green bag and had no problems. At 12 weeks I bought a 50# bag or pride and pleasure chick starter/grower and now we have stinky poop!
Our poop used to be solid...
My 14 week olds have been out for about nine weeks. No signs of worms as of yet but with the heat humidity and rain I want them to stay healthy. My 7 week olds are in an outside brooder but get on ground at least twice a week.

I built one of those solid off the ground log cabin looking coops with external nest boxes... lots of time and effort. They use it at night right now but I cleaned it today and its like an oven in there. Plenty of ventilation and alight cooored rubberized roof to cut down on heat but stil very...
d Thank you guys so much. I thought that open air coops would be cheaper and easier but everyone seems to think chickens need a huge chick mansion. Not t to say that ooen coops cannot be just as nice. Here in the south our heat and humidity during the summer are gonna keep my babies out of the...
So..would you say that you framed it as if it were going to have solid walls but instead used the wire. You said u have removable panels for harsh weather. What are those made out of?
