Couldn't you draw those big white circles on the ground so they could practice social distancing :)

Hi Kris so glad things are moving along. Hope everyone stays well or gets better. So on the Space theme and coop themes I saw this Coop that is just too cool. Danger Will Robinson.. https://www.backyardchickens.com/articles/a-ufo-chicken-spaceship-coop-that-is-out-of-this-world.73235/

I am using a similar plastic product (see attached) on the floor of one of my chicken tractors (designed to be a starter space for young chicks so only 40'x84") . I'm not sure what is available to you but something similar may work. I found it in the wall panelling section of our super home...

LOL - How do you keep a border collie in bed rest ??

It's pretty crazy here in the States. If they don't start getting the stores restocked i fear there will be riots. So far people are taking it in stride but empty shelves and no meat won't play well for long.

I try not to judge - But are they using enough nails !! As always enjoy the beautiful scenery.

Can you make some hot water bottles or move the incubator into a box to retain the heat ?

well the plan last year was get 4 BO birds with hopes for a 50/50 hen roo mix and they were going to live in the big tractor as a flock and origal BSL hens would stay as another flock and then get 4 more SS hens this year. Well the mix was 100 roo and I've been trying to adjust ever since :(

He's one of four BO roosters all about 1 yr old. He was moved for his own safety as things were out of hand in the smaller tractor. He was placed with 2 hens. Del was the original occupant and I added an injured hen Ebony from the hen flock. I built a subpen in the tractor and kept her there...

It's sooo exciting :) Nice to see you back at the keyboard. Since you are the "Rooster Lady" I'll give you an update. Nobody's been sent to the 'Freezer camp'. Things are going much better with my psycho Rooster, even gave him a name (drum roll ,,) "Jack" after Jack Nicholson in 'One Flew over...

Now how high would YOU go LOL

LOL you could go Star Trek and call her 5 of 9 :)

I went to Newfoundland to visit the University there. The ferry back was 18 hrs long and reminded me of the Movie the Perfect Storm. Even the crew were sick. Huge waves. Was still sea sick two days after I got off the boat.
