I'm wondering about more feeding stations, but you've probably got that covered already.I woke up last night dreaming about this integration so it seems it has been weighing on my mind more than I thought it was.
Positives:
To dos when I get home today:
- Everyone roosted where they should last night within a reasonable time frame.
- Everyone is downstairs this morning
- Everyone has eaten ~ food left over from last night
- Everyone has had a drink
- The pen is quiet & calm so I think the new birds have settled in. Even in confined quarters there is plenty to look @ in their view & lots of new sounds to adjust to.
- Add a 2nd drinking station to the big coop
- scrub all my food tubs.
- check the treadle feeder.
- Fill the run water station with fresh water.
- Make sure all my logs are stable. The big girls have been digging under them for grubs.
- Put down fresh bedding under all the roosts.
What have I forgotten?
I have 1 for every 3 birds plus I do Ha'penny & Lottie by hand. I do have the option to add more. Plus the treadle feeder so anyone can graze during the day.I'm wondering about more feeding stations, but you've probably got that covered already.
Ok, sounds good!I have 1 for every 3 birds plus I do Ha'penny & Lottie by hand. I do have the option to add more. Plus the treadle feeder so anyone can graze during the day.
I'd never do just one. That would be awful all round.
