hello fowl folk!
okay, so this is an extremely newbie question. we got silkies in the midst of the Great Central Texas Drought of 2011, and it hasn't really rained since we've had them. there is pretty big rain in the forecast for this week (thank goodness!). our run could get really muddy, i fear, and i've read that silkies shouldn't be in muddy conditions evarr. so the question is, should i open the coop in the morning like regular if it's raining/there's big rain forecast? or should i leave them cooped up? i would appreciate some insight! thanks.
and if you're bored, check my blog, we are trying to become urban farmers: http://totallyurbanfarmer.blogspot.com
