Hello from Alaska

[Treemanjlp]

I am 6.5!months new to raising chickens. It has been quite the experience! We currently have 5 RIR(6.5 months), 6 black giants(2.5 months), 4 RIR(2.5 months), 4 BR(2.5 months), and 1 very sassy BLRW(2.5 months). I have lost 3 babies to coccidiosis, I have had to cull 3 roosters, I have a hen that’s struggling with egg laying, and I am struggling with balancing my henhouse so it’s a warm, moisture free environment for this winter. We’ll get there!
