    What made you happy today?

    I was able to get a refill kit, refillable 1lb kegs and a 20lb tank today! Friend is taking me to get the 20lb tank filled tomorrow so I will be sorted for the coming snow!

    What made you happy today?

    They're really good! Even as someone who does not like seafood I do like octopus. It has a very mild flavor, not fishy at all and takoyaki is really good (the local ramen place makes really good takoyaki). I would 100% recommend trying it if you get the chance!

    So many winter eggs, is this normal?

    Some birds will start up late winter (especially younger birds) and some will wait until spring is in full swing. Both are perfectly fine, they're going to do whatever they're going to do. Enjoy it but know they won't necessarily start up this early as they get older nor will future birds start...

    2026 Chick Thread!

    Main concern is disease. Make sure he is quarantined for a month before introducing him to you flock and make sure they quarantine him when you send him back

    How cold is too cold

    What breeds do you have and do you have especially young or especially old birds? As long as they have adequate draft free ventilation most birds are fine at those temps. Just make sure the water doesn't stay frozen (and keep it out of the coop as it adds humidity and humidity is the enemy...

    Things you wish you could say

    Sir, I don't agree with this being age restricted either but the decisions of what's age restricted and what isn't is well above my head. If you have a problem with it take it up with the county, getting mad at me accomplishes absolutely nothing, I just work here and am just doing my job

    Layer or sayer ??

    I agree, late blooming cockerel. The presence of more dominant birds can delay development in cockerels and deter them from crowing which might be why he isn't going after pullets or crowing yet (that and every bird is different). Give him time and he'll likely do all that eventually

    Things you wish you could say

    Some dogs will bark because they are happy to see you and want attention so them liking you won't necessarily solve it

    The cold with 3 chickens

    The ventilation is where the hardware cloth is

    Roo turned bully

    So 3 roos to 7 hens from what I gathered? That is way too many boys for the amount of hens you have. I would have one at most with that few. I would keep the one you like best and remove the other 2

    The cold with 3 chickens

    In that case that coop is perfectly fine, no need to bring them inside at those temps

    The cold with 3 chickens

    Only improvement I would make is to uncover the vents if they are covered, poor ventilation leads to moisture buildup and condensation which leads to frostbite. Otherwise that coop looks fine
