are your roosts too high? or your coop floor too hard?

Neither. She is the only one.

 

[Perris]

She has some inherent weakness in foot or immunity then?

 

[Shadrach]

Is that the Clifton Suspension Bridge?

It is.

Miss Broody.

One of the friendly fence hoppers. No trouble. Just picke her up and put her back over.

Got the holes for the vent slot drilled. Found my rivit gun but no rivits!
Where the holes are will be a full cut out, hardware cloth covered, rivited in place. It will look neat enough when it's finished. Plastic is rivits, or nuts and bolts for construction.
Built the base frame for the run and found wood for the doorway.

Home at last.Up to date now. These are from this evening and it stayed dry.
No more dog hair in everything. No hour long walks in the morning either.
The hens I've been hen sitting for are a sweet pair.

The hens I've been hen sitting for are a sweet pair.

What breed are they, Shad? If you've said, I've missed it. And can you say what you think of their keeping arrangements. Just curious as it's yet another backyard keeping arrangement that is probably different to what I'm used to.
