They like dark boxes.. cover or put golf balls in the lighted ones..
They are fine~ Share your coop when finished! I am sure lots of us would love to see it. LOL, I agree with some here----You hens will probably only use 2 or maybe 3. I have 2 nesting boxes, and 6 hens, soon to be 8. I have seen an empty nestbox, but 2 hens are either fighting over one or 2 are cramming into the SAME box. Sometimes one will lay an egg on the floor of the darn coop because she can't get into the box she wants when one is empty!!!
Chickens are so addicting. My neighbor moved and left their chicken . I adopted them and bought a chicken house and a heater . Its only 4 chickens and a Rooster. I am retired and my chickens are exactly what I needed to fill my days . I bought a dog lot 10x10x6 high. I am going to add to it this spring . I would get more chickens but I have heard my chickens may not except them .Is this your first flock or you’ve had others before?
Yeah, you’ll eventually keep adding especially if you have the means to. They are so addicting and entertaining!
500 foot run? On only half an acre? Not possible.I'm going to have about a 500-foot run for them. Our backyard is fenced in and probably half an acre. They will have access to that while we're home on the weekends and what not.
