Hi. Enjoying reading all the different threads. I too spent some time out in the coop today. I had taken the big screen door off the chicken run last week. Since it was full of 5 feet of snow, I squeezed the snow blower in that doorway and snowblowed the whole thing. I could never have shoveled it. Then did the regular maintenance stuff. I noticed one of the RIR's legs/feet are kinda pink. Oh I hope that means nothing!
I'm wondering about getting a few more chickens in the spring and maybe letting a couple who don't produce and continually eat eggs go to the slow cooker in the sky...is it hard to integrate new babies in with 2 year olds? I'm not going to try to hatch my own. The only thing I am sure of is I will keep my 2 white Leghorns. I love those 2. I guess the first thing to do is to research what I want to get.
