I just ordered one and looking forward to getting it. Thanks for the review. Oh, and awesome, Bowie shirt! My favorite musician ❤️
You are going to love it! I still love mine so much. You're welcome! Bowie is awesome!!!
Someday I’m gonna have a chicken coop. But right enjoy watching you how you take care of your babies and your beautiful garden ❤
Thank you so much!! You will love having chicks!
I’m so happy for you. Now you don’t have to worry about your coop leaking. My chicks will be a month old next week. I’m looking forward to getting them outside in the barn. Their not going outside until spring when their older and we’re 100% positive that their run is secure. Right now the chicks are living on the back porch, I never gave them a heat lamp because its so warm out there and their growing like little weeds. In about two weeks we’re making the move, they have to start getting use to the cooler weather. I think even though they should be alright I will put a heat lamp out there for a couple of weeks just in case they get chilly at night. Raising chicks is fun but also a little more work than I remember. I guess I should have waited until spring and then they could have gone directly in the barn with a heat lamp, but the way I figure it they will be laying eggs in the spring and I won’t have to wait to be getting eggs. Plus we have all winter to figure out where the raccoons got into the run. I may be seeding the run this fall, I haven’t decided yet with winter wheat or something like it so the chickens have some forage in the spring. We had 50 plus chickens 3 ducks and 2 turkeys in the run and they tore up the run pretty good. I would love about 20 or 30 more chickens but I’m going to limit my next purchase to about hopefully 10 more. Some of the prolific egg layers were not available to order when I ordered mine so I got a few of what I could. Only 6 and I will probably order 2 each of the others I want in the spring. Because we can get pretty cold up here in the north I try to find hardy breeds and they also have to be good egg layers. Next winter they will be able to go in and out at will so if I’m going to seed the run I have to do it this fall. Sorry for the book. I’m procrastinating going to pick up medical supplies at Walgreens, hubby came down with Covid two days before we were going down to see the Ark in Kentucky with friends 😢 I was so looking forward to that trip. Anyway congratulations on your new coop I hope it serves you well! 🌺💚🙃
Wow you got chicks! I'm so happy for you I remember you mention getting some in spring. I actually been looking at chicks again online lol. I can't do anymore chicks right now. I don't have the patience for another round right now lol. I'm so sorry your hubby is sick. Make sure you both take care. Your going to have so many eggs in spring! I can't wait until my girls start laying. The eggs at my local stores are getting so expensive. Thank you!!
I've seen demos and hear a lot of great things about hemp. It's costly but lasts longer and doesn't have the dust issue. I'll be trying it out after I'm done with the bag of shavings I already have.
You will have to let me know what your experience is because hemp is one that I'm considering but couldn't find it here locally
@@TheThriftedPlanter Sorry for the delayed response, but let me tell you - HEMP IS GREAT!! I've been using it now for a couple of months now and I will NEVER GO BACK TO SHAVINGS. Hemp is basically dust free (so I nor my chickens are inhaling all that dust). The chickens don't mess with it like they do with shavings, so adding thing layers for a deep litter method works great. It's super absorbent so I'm actually using less every week as I add layers. Also, it doesn't get that stale, vulgar smell in the coop that pine shavings get when they get old. I bought mine from Old Dominion Hemp so it doesn't really have any smell. But the My Favorite Chicken brand has an additive (doo kashi) as an added odor eliminator. I feel like I've done something really healthy for my chickens, and myself, by not having to deal with all that dust.
Holy moly you received quite a nice gift from that company, probably around $1,500 worth of nice gift. Nice, I hope you and your girls love it! 🌺💚🙃 PS I’m glad I have a barn! 🌺💚🙃
Yes, I'm so grateful they wanted to work with me and were so generous to my girls. Having a barn is really nice. I unfortunately don't have enough space
Next spring I think that I’m going to add a rooster, just one so I can hatch my own eggs when I need replacement chickens. 🌺💚🙃
How secure are the connectors in a very heavy wind?
Is there any way to lock the door so predators can’t get in ?
Hi there! No there isn’t a lock but any predator would have to come at an angle to be able to pull the door up since it slide to the side and up.
I use a wood product cat litter for my baby chicks, no dust and their pelleted. It seems to be working fine. I forgot did you get a rooster? 🌺💚🙃
I use the wood pellets for my cat litter. I was going to use it for the coop but I decided to try something else first.
I didn’t see any nesting boxes? 🌺💚🙃
They are under the smaller green roof
