ered past.
Now you would think with all the broodies I've had I've be up to my ears in chicks but no, they've moved around so much and others getting in to lay eggs only two so far.
I'm only half heartedly disappointed. Many repairs to do on roofs as the tarps or plastic have broken down and there is quite the mess. Bought the final panels of tin for one roof and DD says friend has six or so for another.
Also went to Ollies for a tarp for another hoop coop. Corrugated panels would be good for hoop coops too, but expensive right now. $120 as opposed to $10. I'm reluctant to do anymore work or spend more money, as I get tired and may have bit off more than I'm willing to chew. Perhaps it's time to downsize, though I'm wrestling with what to give up.
Has anyone else found them in this place of to many chickens? When did you decide you'd gotten in over your head and what did you do about it?
Garden beds will be covered and left un-planted next year for sure. Scored some heavy boxes from new chairs at work that will be good for that. Plus other weed blocking areas.
Saw a new bunny yesterday. She must have had a second litter but why only one bunny? I would expect to see more in a litter. I am in the process of blocking the path under the coop, so next year there will be no more in the yard at least. They will have to find new quarters.
For those who are feeding egg back to their chickens, I wonder why? Why keep chickens to only feed the eggs back to them? Wouldn't it make more sense to keep fewer chickens?
Cool nights resulted in turning off the fans in the coop, but they are not good for the tomatoes. So far I've only gotten cukes and some peppers. I'll be yanking out mints and replanting them near the coop. Chickens don't seem to bother them.
Anyone else got a garden going?
