Hey y'all! I have 2 quick questions... So, my chicken coop was destroyed by Hurricane Michael, and my chickens and ducks are pretty much free range since the storm. Ive got a pin for my ducks and have tried everything to get my chickens to roost inside a small shed in the backyard. They still prefer to roost on whatis left of the frame of their old pin! Question 1... How can I get them to start going inside the shed? I've tried putting corn in there, a heat lamp, their feeders, and they just won't call it home.
Question 2... I have a broody hen that picked a spot in our boat that is half-covered by the army tent it was under prior to the storm. She has lost a few eggs to predators, but is still sitting on several. Can i move her and the eggs from this spot to a place that is more secure?
