Ribh's D'Coopage

Yea!!!! Go bees!!! So excited for you.
:wee:ya:wee
Thank you, Kris. Apart from helping save our natives & help the environment it is another small thing we can manage on just under an acre for self~sufficiency. And it's not the sort of thing to impact anyone's health negatively. Which is good. :D
 
Hello ladies... and rj :frow
Well, my middles have been fully integrated for two days now.. things look good! Kathryn is still in time out.. and it looks like Maryn is trying to take her place and is acting just like her :barnie... with everyone... except Ruby of course! She may get the boot too if she doesn’t behave! I’m also wondering when should I let Nilky and babies out with the rest? The only thing that is keeping me waiting is that we are putting up the fenced yard soon and I’ll be letting everyone out and leaving the door open so everyone has access to in or out... and I cannot let mama and babies do that as they are still so small (bantams) and they’ll fit through the fence... soooo, this is my new dilemma at the moment... uuuugghh, don’t really know what to do about this!
 
Some of you may have seen this pic.. this was the first night the middles slept with the BG’s...
Tonight I decided to wait and see what went down... I was curious as there wasn’t much poop in the coop this morning. The middles headed up early and just couldn’t figure out where to settle.. or they knew what was coming so were just anxiously waiting... well, the BGs headed up and the middles freaked as they were sorta cornered in the back.. so they proceed to fly in between the door and the roof.. there is a space there for ventilation.. it’s about 6 inches wide and they had a time trying to squeeze in there :he... flapping like crazy!!! So once the BGs were all in I took the mids and moved them to the other end of the roosts... away from the BGs ... so they looked pretty much the same as this pic... a little farther away from the others though...
So who knows what happened last night.. they very well could have slept on the door last night :confused:... so now hubs has to put another 2x4 there tomorrow.... CHICKENS BE CRAZY!!!!!
