I had to move them out of the shop, THEY STUNK!!! All meat birds do is eat/sleep/poop (and not in that order!!!) Yesterday was the longest I could take them in the shop! They had to go! I put them out in the tractor (and added a heat lamp so they’ll have some extra heat for a week or so) and they seemed to enjoy getting on the grass.
I then cleaned out their brooder, and it was a mess! They had made a HUGE mess in just 2 weeks. I guess 52 chickens can do that pretty easily!
This morning I went out to check on them, and it looks like something tried to get in to their tractor, but didn’t. BUT, we did lose one. It looks like it got too close to the back wall, and whatever was trying to get in grabbed it and injured it. The rest were doing great this morning. I’ll add pictures later today!
Once again, Life On a Souther Farm blog is having another Chicken Nest Box giveaway! I sure hope I win this time. These nest boxes are beautiful!! Wish me luck!!
