If any one on the way to ChickenFest is passing thru Franktown there are two 7 week old roo's I can't keep. They were raised by a broody momma and still in a sectioned off broody pen in the coop. That being said, they are rather hard to catch. They must be roo's 'cause they already have bright red combs??? Momma just started laying again and is back with her buddies in the larger section of the coop. I can call the lady I got the eggs from and she can tell me the exact breeds, or come and take them to be slaughtered. I would prefer they had a good home. Thanks in advance

I use electronet fence all the time. I guess money is all relative to what someone thinks is expensive. I think it is very reasonable. 160 feet of fencing is just over $100. It take just a few minutes to set up and works 100% of the time. I think the charger was $150 but I can link any number of electric fencing to the one charger (solar). I have two and a half acres on one charger and several different configurations of fence for different needs.
I use it for pigs, dogs, birds. It is so easy

Where did you buy it? I just saw it listed in a catalog for more than $200, if it can be had for half that I am in. I already have a charger that should work with it.

We finally got our coop/run set up secured enough to house chickens! The coop still needs paint, a pop door, ramp, and watering system, but I am SOO excited to just have the girls out of my house. And they sure love their new home.

I bet they love it!!!!!!

This is the least expensive I could find. http://www.kencove.com/fence/electr...&utm_medium=PPC&utm_campaign=PriceGrabber+PPC

I am pretty sure we got the fencing from this place and the charger from Jax's.

I just got this petition emailed to me and, of course, signed it. It's all about animal rights so please send this one to as many as you can. Thanks

Beautiful!

Do those glass panels go down on all sides? What a great way to shut them in quickly in inclement weather.

They have two windows, one near the house that doesn't open and on facing away from the house that does open and close. The run is also mostly covered in suntuf panels, so the hope is that the weather won't be bad enough that I'll have to shut them up too often.

[COLOR=FF0000]Hey [/COLOR] Does anyone else get Miller moths about this time of year?  Every spring they invade the house like locusts.  They make a nasty mess when you swat them so there are traps everywhere.  I sealed up every possible entrance but the little ******** still get in.  I have trained both the puppy and 2 kitties to eat them but still end up chasing them around with a vacuum.   I'm sure it's quite a sight.  How do you get rid of those things?  Move the chooks in?

My husband says puts out a saucer of beer under a light bulb. They supposedly flutter around and fall in the beer and drown.

Excellent, thanks! Did you get the regular or the Pos/Neg? The Pos/Neg one says it works better in ground with no moisture, which described my land to a "T" so I might have to get that type.
