Against the odds hatching thread (with pictures and questions)

They still go under the heater at night (it drops down to the 30s and 40s), but they perch and snooze in other places during the day. They like to bury themselves in the fluffy shavings and nap there, too, but I can’t get a picture because they get up and run to me when I open the door

but I can’t get a picture

Not even with your 'spy cam'?

These 2 sure look like roos to me. Any more pics of the crew? I'll see who else I can spot.

Hmm... you may have a little cockerel there ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

They're getting to the age where you can really start to see those early bloomers.

Yep, some are looking reeeeeally suspicious already. I think 3 of the 4 Lemons are boys I’ll take headshots tomorrow and post. Right now I just want to cry because the neighbor next to the coop, who used to be okay with it, is suddenly not okay with it and wants it moved, or else. It took me half a year to build this big walk-in coop by myself, and now the run is almost done, and now he decides he doesn’t want it there, after all this work!!!! I want to cry... I just want to cry

That's just gut wrenching . Did the neighbor give any reason for the sudden change of heart ?

 

[UThobbyfarmer]

That's terrible. Is it possible to just say a simple "no"?

Is it on your land? Technically, you could just tell him to suck it up, lol.
