I just want to thank the kind, lovingpeople here who have helped me direcly, or inderectly learn about chickens. It's been a year since I've lost any chickens to predators and hopefully it will be many more. My first 2 attempts at raising chickens have been disasters and made me feel undescribably terrible. I was very anxious to try again, but now I have a happy flock that will be expanded in the spring. One of my hens died last week of unknown causes, perhaps the cold, but again I have learned and am working of insulating the coop better. Thanks again for your love and support.
