Hi everyone, my husband and I are new at chickens. Our dog Sweetie doesn't quite know what to make of them, LOL We are in process of converting a shed

Has anyone here done sand in their coop instead of shavings? We're using sand instead of shavings in the brooder, and it's so easy to clean! I'm considering switching the (small) coop, too. Any concerns about our climate and sand?

The floor in my coop is sand, because thats what the ground is here. In the winter I have lots and lots of pine needles layered in it. Seems to be working just fine.

I got the chicks moved to a larger pen. I even had to make the ecoglow a little taller. When I put a stick in the box, they all jumped right on it. They are darn cute!

Good morning MI.

I had a good night at my grandma's last night. My aunt & uncle were there as usual, and my nephew and his wife. My sister, other nephew, her boyfriend, and his son also came for dinner. They haven't been to Thursday dinner in quite a while and it made for a full house. Loved watching my nephews and kids all play various games of cards, dice, and chess in the livingroom. My aunt made some potatoes casserole stuff with mushrooms, onion, ham, & BACON in it. Yum...

Loving all the chick pics too!
