We just bought the pair a few weeks back so we are just starting with them. I had 2 hatch out of 2 eggs I set when I first got them and have 4 more due April 30th. I'll sell some eggs but chicks are being kept until we get some pullets to put back in with dad and a cockeral to put back with mom. But yes we plan to raise some!! Sorry i'm excited!

I don't its circulated. It's best to let them be cool at night during the crazy temperatures we have.

No, I don't really think it gets that cold here. Those insulated coops are mainly for people who live way up north when the temps stay at freezing and below. Most chickens tolerate the cold better than they do the heat. The only problem I have had in the winter is the water freezing...I would have to make sure to get the ice out of water feeders in the mornings every time it froze. I have a coop that my chickens could go to if they wanted and they chose the roosts in the run the entire winter.

Hi! I was just in Newnan today. I love that town...the historical houses are beautiful and its so clean lol. I found a great deal on a chicken house that was just too good to pass up and will be picking it up tomorrow. Had planned on building our coop this weekend but this will be way better.

Thanks for the info on the placement and the silkies. The area we've chosen is a little flat spot on top of a well shaded hill with late afternoon sun. I'm hoping it will be perfect. Thanks also for the pine bark info. I've been trying to decide what to use.

Did you buy your silkies locally? The feed & seed I use doesn't carry them so I'd been planning to mail order. If there is a good supplier around here I'd love to know.

Missyktsm Hello!

I live in Covington...don't know if that is any closer to where you live but I will have some silkie chicks hatch at the end of next week if you are interested just PM me. Thanks.
