I'm happy to have found BYC and want to say Hi to the established members and newbies like me.
My 8 assorted chicks are 5 weeks old today
We have raised chickens before but it's been some years. Wow, have things improved! We are watering using a bucket and nipples and will use a gravity PVC system soon. The feeders are old school trays but we will use PVC elbows in a bucket in the next day or two.
The chicks are housed in our old chicken tractor which is adequate but not so easy to modify for improvements so DH is building another portable coop.
It's been very helpful and fun to see what others have done when building coops.
I could spend all day looking at coops or otherwise on BYCe
