Hi everyone. All of your info posted here has been so helpful. I am on my second year of raising chickens. Unfortunately our first flock was taken out slowly and annoyingly by raccoons. Now we have 3 Plymouth Rock's, 10 brown hens (not sure breed, just hybrid layers) and a beautiful RIR Roo.
I've just ordered an auto chicken door, and looking forward to being able to know the flock is safe each night.
We just went through our first really cold week of winter here so I have been trying to find ways to keep the waterers thawed. I found a neat design online involving a cheap lamp and cookie tin, so I will give it a try starting today.
Any and all suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thanks Rob
