A little over a month ago, I ordered 10 pullets from Hoover Hatchery. They came in on time and the 12 that were sent were alive and kicking, healthy as they can be. They are growing up a storm and share my paint room with me for a little while longer. They are getting kind of crowded in the 6x2...
Love my sand...easy to clean...I have no pests. Hang my water/feed. Have funnel turned down over my feed in case any little climbing critters want to give the chain a try. Think putting a piece of plastic hose over my chain would give them a realy good fall ! LOL
I am looking for 3-5 month old pullets...(NO ROOS)....not allowed! I am partially handicapped and cannot handle chicks anymore. Not fair to them. I do, however, have a small coop big enough for 4, and a large coop big enough for 6-7 more. Only have two hens in there now. I am not particular...
My chickens always loved the all-purpose sand I have used. I'm in the process of changing out and cleaning out and have 10 more bags to go in there. I will use it more in the run than I have in the past due to the hens completely wiping out the grass. They have been free-ranging for a while so...

Well, I'm missing 2 of my free-range older hens, A dark brahma and a RIR. We had a dog visit us and the owner didn't realize the dog would chase chickens ! He chased them into the tree line... 2 of the four came back up but 2 didn't..... It was so hard to close up that coop that nite! Waited...
If I got the 4x8x16 pavers@ $1.56///It would come out to around $65.?? But that's cheaper than $100and having to trench and dealing with handling the big bag of quickqrete wouldn't it??
