I think that was you I met at tractor supply this morning. Nice meeting you, good luck with the birds. Spent the day with mine, they actually are flying up on our arms now and laying down.Thanks! I have 15 BR's and I am pretty sure two are cockerels, might have one more, but he/she is an, I don't know, right now. As they are growing and especially with the natural light, I can no longer tell the two cockerels! LOL
We have been working on the coop some more this week-end. Wasn't sure, since it is a holiday week-end, but the guys showed up and the coop should be done tomorrow! I am painting the inside for easier cleaning, so will be a bit before they can go live in their new home, but hopefully this week! Once I can no longer smell the paint I will move them out to it. I finally found a red heat lamp, just incase the coop is too cool for them...we will see! I hope to get more socializing in with them once they are in there too as I can fit sitting down, unlike the brooderThey really don't like it when you reach down for them, aye?
Well, everyone is asleep and it is dark out, so this is a great thing!!! Will be glad to turn the fan on though, when they are in their new house
