I'm trying a link w/ my fb page to show of a photo of the coop in the back yard after we got the playhouse converted in to a chicken coop. The photo program on my p/c is not as good as I'd like and can't get the phone to sync my pics. so I have our son take some when he comes with his camera.

The first Doz. Eggs!
Today we slept in I, let the chickens sleep in too, so the neighbors did as well. =D The chickens barely had the light on this morning on. I let them out early at sunrise today. Hoping to get the roo to stop pecking the hens.
It's 31* out the water was not frozen today and we are expecting 38* for a high temp. so this is shaping up to be a good day. Wind is dropping the temps. down a bit today so the outside water was frozen.
We are hoping to get some eggs to try to hatch next month.
This week has been successful in training the chickens to use the coop after we opened it up with the chicken door we cut into the run they were still roosting & laying eggs in the outside part. That was fine until the temps. dropped so we took those roosts down put a light up and they started using the coop. We were going to do that for a week but the caught on after three days!
