Don't suppose anyone has bought an automatic door have they?

Im up at 7 but our coop isn't huge so by then the chooks are dying to get out. This morning I had a big fat faverolle hanging off the wire half of my door like a giant budgie and the silkie jumped off the roost about 30 seconds too early and hit the door instead of where the open hole would have been when I got the door open.

Starting to wonder if an automatic door opener might be an option?

Na if I had them I would never get out of bed in the mornings lol

I shouldn't have brought up politics. There is too high a risk of people turning against one another and becoming trolls (I mean me

as I get rather enthusiastic about my point of view....).

On another note, I finished my Indoor aviary, yays. I'll have pictures up tomorrow. I also have eggs in lockdown tomorrow. Wish me luck!

Nah. Think everyone played very nicely

Hello everyone, I just have a quick question, I wanted to buy some DE to put in my dust bath, where do you get yours from?

I get my DE from Bellsouth but that is because it is close to where I am. You could probably get it cheaper somewhere on the net...
Thanks heaps Satay, I'll have a look and see how many girls/boys I have

Thank you, I've been looking online and got a bit confused with the different types :/ I have seen "Pet and Garden Grade" and "Food Grade"

If you are using it for poultry you need to buy the 'Food Grade' DE

Good luck on your hatch Colourful!
What do you have in the bator?

Hows your babies going rexy? Did you get many pullets?

Going really well, Chook. I got 4 girls/5 boys, most of the boys look like they're blues. Got another 33 eggs in the incubator - 5 days to go. Am I just grumpy, or is it really annoying when people advertise these birds/eggs of great type and quality, and can't even spell the name correctly. Are you still hatching all yours, or are you ready to sell some?
