I love you guys lol. I was just about to ask what I could do to get my little hen laying again and I read all the post about Cayenne. Im not sure why she stopped

but maybe that will help. Her coop has been nice and warm in the 40s and 50s I have not added a heater to it yet its just stays that way though I did put a light in it about a 1 1/2 weeks ago when the days started to get less light. With the Cayenne I feed my girls pellets would i just put two spoon fulls in with the pellets and shake to mix it in?

Oh and I will be putting eggs in the incubator tomarrow

They have to sit for a little bit first. But omg they showed up FAST.

I payed for them on sunday got a message saying that they where shipped yesterday and got them today. even If he shipped them sunday night after I payed for them that would have only been 3 days wow that is the fastest i have ever got eggs shipped. And they made it great. Boxed packing peanuts bubble wrap. 12 eggs came 10 I payed for and only one damaged. though it looks all most like it was done before shipping or something.

little dent in the side.

anyway I just wanted to say I will have eggs in the bator soon.

oh let me know how well yours holds up ww for the chicken block Im looking for directions that makes the block nice and sold

Oh, congrats on that, Eveil!

I want to try hatching eggs in the spring...I've never done it. It would make a fantastic wintertime project for me to try to build my own.

Lockdown tomorrow morning folks! I have two Banty Favorelles of Donnas, three of my mutts, and three of Donna's BCMs (she thinks! lol).

Send hatching vibes that I get the humidity right!!

Oh, I don't think I've posted a pic of the tractor for you guys...my camera hasn't really been available. This one is my daughter's, and it's not great but that's what I have right now.

Here are the girlies enjoying their snack with Moonlight the dog lurking on the other side of the wire. You can get a peek inside, where they now have a light on a timer.

And the roof raised...

I think if I were a chicken, I'd be happy to hang out in here.
