Hi! I have a flock of baby chicks I've been raising for 5+ weeks now. We are really excited! We've gotten so much great advice here!
I have 15 girls and 1 boy. They are all different breeds and beautiful. I constructed my own coop and pen - using nothing but wood, wood, screws/washers, more wood and more hardware cloth than you can imagine!
Our neighborhood dogs came to visit right after I put 10 of the babies outside for the first time and the coop/pen passed the first test! No dogs go inside I'm nervous because I know we have fox around here - I've seen them. I have hardware cloth on the top, bottom, sides screwed into all kinds of framing - so I hope they will be okay!
Ciao!
