I have not posted in awhile but I am excited just had my new "coop" delivered. My last hatch put me over maximum chickens so instead of reducing my flock I enlarged my coop. I have found sheds to be the easiest to make into a coop. My existing 8 by 6 shed will now be a brooder. My new bigger shed will be the coop. Now to install hardware cloth, pop door, roosts and nesting boxes.

My head is spinning with how many chickens I would fill that with

I hope everyone is well. Have been super busy lately. I wish my chickens would stop trying to eat one another.
I have a pullet (bottom of pecking order), her mom's and dad beat her up. Free pullet if anyone wants.
And a CX that must be so tasty her sisters keep trying to eat her. CX I believe had a bloody spot from tick or mites. I played doctor and she got came back from brink of death. A scab covered in bluekote was left. They decided to resume feeding anyway. She doesn't look like she cares though. No affect on her at all.

They really are little dinosaurs, aren't they?! I don't know why people use the word chicken to describe a coward because chickens will you up.

When I was cleaning the poop board earlier three herbs were very chatty, especially the Princess, our Lavender Orp from @Faraday40.

I cannot seem to upload a video file though from my phone... ☹

Is video on YouTube first. ?? I don't think this site allows personal videos posted directly.

Our mini farm (very mini) is coming together. Now we have our own wind mill.

YouTube is a good idea. Here's the video of Princess singing to me. Duck (a chicken named Duck that is) is in the nest box singing as well.

That's a very important song!

I want some better raised beds. Where can I find the corrugated metal?
