we just finnished a small coop and run and hope to be having eggs after our girls get acclimated to the place and start getting more light. we have a light in there coop all night long. not only for the artificial light factor but a little heat too
we have 4 hens
2 barred rock
1 road island red
1 Campine .........they told me she was a Amuracauna ?? we asked for a blue egg layer and gave us her, then got home a found out she wasnt what we thought.....
we will see how it turns out... we want the hens for egg production but need the birds to be winter tolerant, decent foragers, and meaty enough to eat once they quit laying eggs.
ill add some pix here soon
