Thanks Monty!

Thanks Q, tell your wife that everyone can be red although in the pic it looks orangish to me. I will get a better pic tomorrow in the day light.

My DH gets hubby of the year, we worked out there in the rain to finish it up. We were under the awning for the 4-wheelers but still he worked all day then came home to help me finish it. I put the cochins in but it was dark and I didn't want to start snapping pic's since I had just moved them. All I have to do it put one more latch on the upper doors and the ramp that will allow them to go into the bottom. I'm not to worried about that cause I don't think the will get to go down there or they won't stay white.

Thanks Matt! I was lucky to have all the stuff, the only thing we had to buy was: Paint, screws, henges, chicken wire & latches.

I'M ready to do another one so it is ready before the black set gets here.

Great looking pen Sooner. Hope the cochins will learn to fly up and down. Mine aren't much on flying.
Tj"s NaNa Congrats on the wins. You ane Bill are doing a great job learning those kids all about birds. (Just need to get them started in pigeons! Teach and I can help!LOL)
I built and rebuilt pens today trying to make room for the new birds I got at the auction. My little lemon blue OEG layed!. I would put her against any serama for cuteness! She is barely five inches tall. Her roo and the pair of blues are going to be the same way. I will try and get pics. I didn't think I would like the moderns but boy they are cute to!
Got the notice today that the fall Amish sale will be the 24th. Thats 4 days before my next heart cath so I guess it goes on my bucket list!

Nice coops MAllen and Carah. I'm going to make me one now.

Talking about riding bulls, I just never had that want to. Son rode a few training bulls when in high school. SIL rode his last bull at 28 years old.

Help anyone...I've got birds that are sneezing...not acting right. It's not any of my grown birds....just babies and teenagers. I put Sulmet in the water....what else should I do?

I've lost about 6 of my young ones...

..seperated everyone and now trying to figure out do I try one thing at a time and if so what.

Thanks,

Donna

They won't have to fly, there will be a ramp but the white one's most likely won't be allowed to go to the bottom because they will be on dirt and it will stain the feathers.

I have a question, if the roost is low enough will they ever roost?
