In the Brooder
I'm new to all of this and would appreciate any thoughts you may have!
1 week ago I moved 3 20-week old golden buffs into the coop.
Over the last few days they have not been active at all. Coming down to the run for a few minutes to grab a quick bite of food or drink of water and then heading back up to the coop.
For some reason, it seems like they stopped getting along yesterday and it has carried over to today.
That said, the last few nights there has been a raccoon lurking about. I've chased it off a few times but it keeps coming back (I'm in search of a permanent solution). The coop and run are really secure and I feel confident that a raccoon will not be able to get in.
Is this normal? Are they just scared?
Being that they haven't started laying yet, could this have something to do with it?
Thanks!!
