Hi again fellow AZ chicken people
Well, today was a really, REALLY bad day here.
I was taking the new chicks outside into the garden area for some sunshine.
I set up their cage and (it's a long story) Flash, one of my girls, got into the main yard.
Our dog killed her. I am soooooooooooooooo upset. I have been crying nearly all day.
It is my fault that she got killed and I feel like CRAP. I thought I would share the
Reader's Digest version w/all of you here. I am guessing that you'd understand.

I think most people I know just don't "get" it.

Sorry to hear this. I see the cat in the nesting box, that's the one in my house that would love to have a chance at my chickens. Sending hugs your way.

Welcome Dub!

They'll figure out their own pecking order.

Can you do math?

BRAVO

Selina, that coop came out AWESOME!

Thanks, hubby did a great job. The chickens, dog and kids love it. My kids go in and sit on the roosts as well.

I'm going to build a grow out pen / tractor and would like suggestions for cool features.

We saw this one on the Tour De Coop & I'd like something similar (out of steel of course

)





Hints? Tips? Suggestions?

Suggestion: Make it out of wood unless you intend it to be a Clucker Oven. )

My biggest concern is that it looks difficult to clean or get recalcitrant chickens out. Do you really want to scrunch yourself into a tiny ball trying to climb inside, then bang your head getting out? Solve those problems, though, and it will be great. I will suggest not using solid metal sides--you don't want to build a solar oven

Bad Mikey!
