Adozengirls- the photo looks like you have either normal sized hens with dollhouse sized coops or normal sized coops with monster hens! LOL!
Sorry I don't need any right now, I have 6 15-week Ameraucanas (my "biker chicks" cuz I named them all after...
Hi!
Just found this thread. I'm in Central MA.
I'm recovering from a predator attack that killed my awesome broody and my five chicks. Three were hatched in my homemade incubator and two were under the broody. I'm down to one layer, everyone else is either too young, too old, a roo, or on...
