Official Squatch Watchers

I've got about 30 laying age and getting less than a dozen per week. I have 50 or so near POL and another 150 behind them, but way too many cockerels. I'll thin in spring.

I am going to put a couple bright full spectrum lights in to chase away the blahs of winter.

I think these are what I will go with.

For you or the chickens?

I own a poop scoop business. I have done it for two years. I have had the same two girls working for me the whole time. Rich people are generally lazy when it comes to things like that. My wife and I started it together with the maid service. We no longer do the maid service.

So there are enough people desiring the service to make it worth it?
That’s cool!

That’s a lot of birds.
But you’re doing a meat bird growing experiment as well, correct?

 

[staceyj]

Wow. That’s a good one Sammy.

I didn't count the meat birds. 80 chickens in the brooder, going to pasture today and 10 turkeys already on pasture.

 

[staceyj]

I have 20 hens that are laying 4 to 6 a day and 33 more that are not old enough yet and 6 rooster/cockerel about to go down to 2 or 3 boys

That’s a buncha birds too!

I’m going to have to start calling you chicken man!
