Aravis, I agree on the raised coop...it just gives you more square footage to use as run space, and the shade is automatic, and it stays dry and not muddy under there in the winter. Mine are under there 90 percent of the time.
Cynthia, my sprouts took a while, I think on day 2 or three I could see the litttle white heads. I am on Day 7 and this is what it looks like, just moving slower...but it is coming! I think I had quite a few not sprout, I need to spread them thinner next time...and the trays sag a little in the middle so the water pools there and the edges are sprouting much thicker than the middle. Will make some amendments to my next batch. Fun to watch it though! It really changed alot from yesterday to today.
