    The Red Roost Inn!

    Which came first? The chicken or the Coop? It was early in 2023 that we felt it was urgent to have a backup plan for our food needs (eggs & maybe chicken). Food is one of the basics, right? We started researching chickens and have plenty of people in our area of the county that are experienced...

    Mice in my coop

    My current chicken coop was built into a shed but we didn’t convert the whole thing. Half of the shed is the coop, and the other half is the shed area. They have access to the shed area because the hallway in the shed is basically how they come out into their run. In our shed, we have several...

    What is a good security camera with a reasonable price you guys have or seen for your coop? Recently I thought it was a good idea to install security cameras in my coop, one inside the coop and one outside showcasing their run, so I can check up on them through the cameras and also see their...

    How Many Chickens Can my Coop & Run Hold?

    So my brother works at a farm sometimes and the lady that owns the farm was getting rid of this chicken coop. Since we recently got chickens, about 3 weeks ago, we thought why not take it because: 1- we’ll eventually need one 2- it only needs minor fixing 3- it was FREE! We have 5 chickens...

    Completed...for now.

    After the kennel was in place, I gradually added hanging flower planters on each side and the DowntHen Abbey sign. One name plate is blank because "Daisy" turned out to be "Alfred," and unfortunately, he'll be rehomed as my husband doesn't want roosters. Hardware skirt was added on 7/24.
