Not new. Still learning

[Cachickie]

I have 4, down from 6 (hawk) beloved free-range chickens (cooped in a pen at night) in a suburb. There are 2 silkies, 1 speckled Marans, 1 Orpington. My 2 silkies are new layers & my big girls are old enough to have stopped laying entirely it seems, unless they've found a very clever hiding place. I wouldn't mind more eggs, but I can't give up sweet Eggie or Ms. Cheese! I love silkie eggs. So yolky!! It's plenty for just me.

I am still trying to secure my pen. It's now beginning to look more like a log cabin than a chicken pen, lol.

I bet your ladies love their log cabin! Hopefully your two older ones will start laying again when the days get longer (if you're in the northern hemisphere.)

Thanks for joining and welcome to BackYard chickens!

Hi, sorry to read of your losses. If you share a picture of your coop/run, maybe we can make some suggestions on how to make it more predator proof. Thanks for joining us!
