During the day perhaps but not at night. At night the raccoon climbs up on the roost before they know anything is there. They may be able to feel it but they can't see it.
Those 2 roosters had really bad frostbite and I kept them in the cellar till they recovered. I had no where else to put them and since they had been living together I figured this building was good all the doors had been bolted closed.
At least there were no hens in the building.
Today I have to look around for any loose siding edges on all the buildings and screw them down.
I also have to set some traps tonight.

So sorry for you loss. That would be a terrible morning greeting.

Help ASAP, idk what is wrong with thing two eye.he can't keep it open and keeps scratching it.

"Thing two eye"...is that an Indian name?

Relax; he's just winking at you. Probably scratching 'cause he can't believe what he's seeing.

Now I understand why you have a migraine.

Lol I'm tellin' ya! Unfortunately I get them several times a month too. Yeesh,

Hey any ideas/tips for building a grow out coop and run? I want to add one next to the existing coop and run for my "teenagers" as they grow out a bit...they're quickly it growing their brooders (just over 2 weeks old now) - say for up to 20 or so?

I just moved my 6 teenagers out into the big coop that I just finished. I don't really have a grow out coop. I've got two smaller coops that I suppose could be used for the purpose but don't have any pics of the one with an attached run. The other one was designed as a quarantine coop/tractor.

Morning everyone! My phone just deleted my quotes and I also suffer from CRS, so here goes...

Flocktastic, I'm sorry about the migrain. A dark, quiet room with a pillow over my head used to work

Sally, I don't have polish - I think the chick you asked about is a Spitzhauben.

MC I hope you remember the plans for your coop.

NaJoBeLe Congratulations on the BABY News!!

Chaos nice coop!

Cute doelings, LOTS of adorable chickens and a cute Thing 2 gossling!

I hope everyone has a great day!!!

Hoping I can try a nap when my youngest naps but since my daughter is home sick from school...yeah she prob won't let that happen lol she is one of these kids -
Me: "Em, let mommy just rest here with her eyes closed while you watch your movie..."
Em: "ok........(silence for 18 seconds...)....
Mommy....hey...look at that on TV..."

I've got a decent quarantine pen that was used for some pullets and a roo before and I recently used it for my mother in law's border collie mix puppies...but there's no run - it's solid on one side and fenced (very well) on three sides and has a couple roosts but definitely (nice roof) but not large enough for more than 6-8 chickens. Thinking I'll have to convince the hubs to build me something ASAP!! These young ones are getting brave!! Need to do it as affordably as possible.
