My chickens are 8 weeks old and they've been out in the coop for about a week. I turn on a heat lamp at night, as the night time temps have been dropping into the mid to low 20s (goodbye early garden starts). The wireless thermostat in the coop tells me it drops down to about 50 inside the (insulated) coop at night, but it's probably warmer directly under the heat lamp, where they sleep.

Hi all, I'm new to the chicken addiction. Many thanks to all of you in BYC forums for the info that helped me get started!

This is a terrific resource.

I bought my first chicks and some supplies this spring at High Desert Home & Ranch (http://www.hdrhbend.com/). They're very helpful and have good prices.

Who else is breaking the law with more than 3?
Anyone keeping a rooster under wraps?
We want to keep our Silkie roo, looking for suggestions...

i do not think there is a maximum in cornelius just if it becomes a noise problem. three that would be hard ot to break.

Is anyone going to the rabbit show in Canby on Sunday 5/16? I am looking for a pet bunny and wondered if there might be any for sale there. If you have info, please let me know. Thanks!

Crazy Eights is the third or fourth largest rabbit show in the PNW so there will be a lot of swapping and selling going on. PM me with the details on what you want and I might be able to put you in touch with the appropriate breeder.

I'm not really breaking the law by having my Silkie roo since I'm technically allowed to have him, but I have a neighbor who would complain at the wind blowing leaves on a tree, so I am very careful! I got lucky and got a rooster that only crows in the morning so he sleeps in the garage till about noon. After that, he's out with the ladies till bedtime around 7, which is when the crazy neighbor comes home

So far it was worked great.
