Milgrim did some very famous experiments with cloth monkey mothers. Every psych major in college has to learn about them.- ONSTAD1

Chickens for 10-20 years or more? Pull up a rockin' chair and lay some wisdom on us!
I've lived in my house for 10 years and have never seen one hawk. I have a feeling my new birds and the loss of habitat/hunting grounds due to Waldo Canyon fire we had here not to long ago has brought it/them in. Might have just been passing by on the way to greener pastures. who knows- ONSTAD1

Not so much as even a yes or no answer? Honestly, didn't think it was that trivial of a question. Just trying to get a handle on when (or if) I could let my birds out of the enclosed run. mo- ONSTAD1

Quick revert to a few pages back. Last night there was a hawk sitting comfortably on top of my coop. Luckily, all my 9 week olds were locked up tight in the run. I have no doubt that he/she could have taken out one of my pullets, but my question is will a typical sized hawk go after my hens when...- ONSTAD1

I've read well ventilated, but not drafty well over 100 times on this site...seemed sort of an oxymoron unless you got some sort of fancy "draft free vents". My coop is well ventilated and a bit drafty because of it. To think I thought I was breaking the "rules" this whole time... mo- ONSTAD1

Chickens for 10-20 years or more? Pull up a rockin' chair and lay some wisdom on us!
Greetings. Read through the whole thread and failed to see the answer to my query.... Typically, at what age can you tell a roo from a pullet? Is 5.5 weeks in the ball park? I'm close to calling one of my 5 a cockerel and moving him to greener pastures (or a crock pot), but I hate to jump the...- ONSTAD1

OK sorry for the long cut and paste job, but I would like a little feedback on this post. The way I figure it I don't trust any post until see at least 4-5 other people post the same the same thing. I do not know enough about chickens to know if this poster knows what they are talking about or...- ONSTAD1
