INCUBATING w/FRIENDS! w/Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs No problem!

It didn't take long for the flock to spread out the straw.

I could post a picture of where they were laying this morning, but it would not do the location justice. Eight chickens squeezed between a barrel and the HAH trap, around several pieces of plywood leaning here and there, around some 2x4s, and a tote, then I am not sure. They either were somehow squeezing behind the metal can, or jumping onto it, then diving into a covered litterbox to lay.
The coop wasn't dry when I added the bedding, but there was mud tracked in the nest boxes and on the roost from them wanting to find a place to lay. I put bedding in the dry areas, figuring I will scrape and/or rake tomorrow to prevent a problem.
I just realized that I never put down any DE. I will have to do that tomorrow too.

It didn't take long for them to lay either.

One of the pictures was a duckling, the others were peachicks, but doesn't really matter, they should all look the about the same the day they pip internally.

I've seen pressure washers for $80-600. What is it I should be looking for?

It really depends on what you need..... Mine was a 5hp Honda ..... But it was more for industrial use.
Of your only going to use it a couple times a year a mid priced electric one would probably be okay...... But you do get what you pay for

Okay, so internet is not broken, just really slow because Windows 10 is updating my desktop, This page took three minutes to load!

Back to mobile I guess.

Once a year to really clean the coop. But I am sure I will find other uses. I don't like the neighbors!
