I'm trying to be responsible and only get more chickens when their coop and additional run is built. And hopefully enough fencing and netting that they can really get out and forage and be chickens.
My seven younger chickens lived in a brooder in our guest room far too long. It was sad. ( I did get them out every day for exercise. It was craziness.)
Funny story - there is no longer carpet in that room because they busted out one day when I was at work. I heard a strange tapping at the door when I was walking down the hall and opened the door to see a horror show of poop. We cut the carpet, rolled it up and threw it away. It was old anyway.
So I'm determined to only get chickens that already have their accommodations built, not just promised.
Oh dear! That is both hilarious and horrifying!
