I just received 5 birds from some friends parents who could no longer take care of them. I was going to get some chicks in the Spring to raise with my young son, but this will be the start of our flock. From the looks of them, 1 Barred Rock, 1 R.I. Red, 2 N.H. Red and one White Unknown.
After 2 weeks of good egg production, their out put slowed and has been zero for the past 10 days-2 weeks.
I will post all of this up in a new thread.
Here are the ladies and their home. My design project was to make a coop out of the available materials in my shop. I had to buy the hinges/handles, but other than that it was all on hand.
I look forward to learning and sharing experiences with you all as we increase our bird holdings and move on to some meat birds in the Spring.
