Back when we had horses we had a fed bin like in the pic, worked really well, also helped keep down the rats.

My ducks are only about a month older than my chickens. All born this past spring. The ducks blew up yesterday. The chickens are still the same feather here and there you see any other time. I am wondering if my girls are going to explode yet this year, or wait until next year?
@Fisherlady, have the hatch mates of my girls begun to molt?

Not really, but both of the ones we kept from that hatch have been broody and raising chicks since September. And broody hens frequently have a light molt after the chicks are older.

Start populating PA with Reese CCLs and it should get paid off pretty quickly.

So cute. What are sick eggs?

Oops, duck. Silly phone!

That makes more sense now and yes sometimes "smart" phones are "smarter" than they need to be.

Yay!!! Found out that my Muscovy ducks that I bought in the beginning of May just started to lay eggs. I wasn't expecting them to lay until spring.

At least some one is laying. Out of 10 hens I get 1 egg a day if I am lucky! Everyone is molting!!!!!

My new ones are roosting on the outside perch instead of going into the coop. They even have had frost on their backs some mornings. And none of them are laying.

Our turkeys, guineas and peas were all out standing in the rain today and are drenched. Chickens are not the brightest bulbs in the (bird) box, but at least they have the sense to come in out of the rain!
