Our temperature tends to be closer to CJ than GP and we don't use heat lamps unless we get extreme snap. Your girls will be fine as long as they are dry and out of drafts. If we get the week of 28° for the daily high temp I will probably give them some heat before bed but they usually don't need itYes I just got them this spring so not even a year yet. I figure it has something to do with weather. I haven't seen signs of critters I treat regularly for mites and lice and have a enclosed run so no skunks. We have got tarps to put around and over the run fresh dry bedding. My hubby is going to put the heat light in for night time ( so they don't get cold) the run did get muddy this week so I've got some straw to lay down in the run. But I'm a little worried about them I know I over worry being a first timer but this isn't normal is it?
No you either need a light in the coop yo add light hours or they won't start up till spring again when the days get longer againSo here's another stupid question my son has helped me with the daily routine of feeding, watering, coop cleaning and attention giving. Three days after he left for college is when they stopped laying.could him not being around be part of why they aren't laying? I know this is probably the dumbest question I've ever asked but just trying to find out why and how to help. The daylight thing makes sense will they just adjust to that on their own?
I've set up a special coop and run for cockerels so I can grow them out a bit before they go to freezer camp. I have an absolutely gorgeous mutt rooster that I almost hate to eat. I think he is part Silver Laced Wyandotte and part Easter Egger ... he weighs a ton! I should have moved him ages ago.
Locally to me would be anywhere in the Central Oregon area, the mid Willamette Valley (Eugene-ish), and around Medford.
Can you keep him for stud? Or are you in the city and not allowed to keep roosters? We ate all but one of our cockerels last time and we spared that one on account of being so handsome. He's a good roo too, very watchful and good with the ladies.
Only have Black Copper Marans, one colour of Marans and two other breeds is enoughDoes anyone have a Coocoo Marans Rooster they are not needing ?
a Friend in Northbend lost her roo and has some Very very nice hens ,
let me know Tammy
ZANNA ?????? Anyone ????
