Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[Ponypoor]

Ok, you come trudge through this snow 100 yards to the coop.

Make sure that snow is at least a foot deep.

Ok speaking of which, way past time for chores. Have a lovely evening everyone.

Dear Aurora

My name is Charlie Brown. And I live in a coop full of Lucy’s! My question to you is….. how do I win these gals over and get them to stop pulling the dreaded football away?! Some of them even try to use ME as the football
Please help

A rhode island red (for @featherhead007 )and a light brahma. I did talk kiddo out of the full set (black australorp and silver laced wyandotte)
I placed them under the brooder plate and they immediately settled in and went to sleep.
I will keep an eye on them but I've heard good things about ~2 week age difference integration. I will likely end up making a tub brooder when the lizard cage is outgrown.

How exciting! This is awesome!

Chicken math is real.

I got myself another cold. Last night I was freezing while under three hot sheets.
At least I've got the chickens.

Chopped nuts and fresh dark leafy greens (spinach, kale) also have iron in them. It processes differently from meat iron, but might be worth trying.

How I get most of mine since I don't eat meat.

You’ll have to shovel the walkway before I can.

 

[featherhead007]

I use a small low dish, and also throw it on the pen floor for them to dig through.

Same here
