Those look awfully small, how many hens?

I currently have one pullet and one cockerel and i plan on attaching a larger run to the bottom left one, and modifying it a bit to just be a place for them to sleep in.

And I will try to convince my mom to let me have one or two more chickens from tractor supply co in February.

You could file them down. When chickens are outside their constant scratching wears down their nails.

Ok I will try that after my mom gets home from work later.

Their beaks will also need trimming. An easy way to help them keep their beaks at a normal length is to go to Home Depot or Lowe’s and buy a small paver brick and put it in their cage.

I knew that their nails would need trimming but nothing I ever read about caring for chickens said that their beaks needed trimming too.

Their beaks wouldn’t need trimming if they were outdoors scratching around and wiping their beak on stones and the ground.

Oh ok.

I'm going to start a small meal worm farm so I can save money on treats for the chickens. I just need to buy a container of live mealworms from petco or petsupermarket and put oatmeal and carrots in their little container.

I know this is probably getting annoying, but maybe I could get this coop and just use their current cage inside that coop when I need to introduce them to new chickens or to separate snowball and cricket if she starts pecking his head again.
