Hiya welcome to both newbies to the forum

DE is Diatomacious Earth fab stuff that is super useful. It can be used in the house, run and fed to the hens, you can dust the hens with it too.

Hiya,

Stace is correct, Warren/ISA Brown, they are a crossed hybrid hen, from what I have read up, they are a Rhode Island Red cockeral with a White Leghorn hen. But they can be mixed of other breeds too, though the above is I think is more common.

Hiya Netti, I think for the moment, just stick with the ladies that you have reserved with Fresh Start For Hens and concentrate on them. They will be quite bewildered when they come out of the cages and if you get the hens from the garden center, they will be younger and a lot stronger and can do qu...

As for the eggs coming in from abroad, they already do....we don't know about it because the eggs still have a UK stamp simply because they were packaged in the UK! The supermarkets are driving...

Hiya Netty, Welcome to the lane With ref to the wire on the floor of the run, its not such a good idea as the hens will scratch the ground looking for bugs and worms and they could cut their feet. Sinking the wire into the ground around the outside of the run will help in preventing the fox from get...

Hiya, A friend of mine has recently got two Peking Ornamental ducklings. She would like a few questions answered and has been searching but not finding answers for these specific things. They will be two weeks old come Thursday 17th March. She would like to know the following: When will they begin t...

Hiya,

It does look eggcellent Al, well done

Did you put it on the members coop pics? I tell rehomers about this as its a very useful conversion. Almost makes me tempted to go and buy a Wendy house and convert it anyway.
