Everyone: There needs to be 4 sq ft/chicken in the coop Me: Worried that there's only 3.2 sq ft/ chicken in the new coop 10 week old chicks: We're just going to squish ourselves into this 3 sq ft area thanks! LOL! I know they'll grow into it, and the roosts, which they don't seem to know what...

This was supposed to take a couple days. It's been a week and a half, though there were days I couldn't work on it due to rain and most days I only had a couple of hours to dig.

I thought it was just that they were getting older but while chatting with a friend I realized that we fed them the slightly tougher ends...

I just wanted to start a thread for those, like me, who just want to talk about how smitten they are with their new chickies. We got 17 Delaware chicks that are about 2 weeks old now (they will be split up between myself and 2 others once they can be sexed) I've never had chickens of any sort...

Hi! I am the happy momma hen of 17, 2 week old Delaware Chicks. We've had a few issues to work through and I've been on this site so often I decided to join. So far all my chicks are doing well! One is still alive thanks to information I found here. I'm looking forward to chatting with folks who...
