@@debs987 Yes I'm back and glad you subscribed again! Thanks Deb 😊

Glad you have chickens again! Looking forward to this second coop deal.

@@AndyDelosSantos Thanks so much 😊

@@jefflandry3 Hi. I found it on Amazon. Thanks for watching 😊

@@AJsGreenThumbLLC Thanks AJ. Nice to see a comment from you.

@@SlackerU I'm ok with yellow yolks. Dried Marigolds will definitely help deepen the color though. My next project will be adding a new separate coop 6 x 10 for a small flock of pure breed Ameraucanas that lay the beautiful blue eggs. I will receive those chicks in September. More to come on that.

@@colesbackyardcoop I hope the blue-eggs works. My neighbor tried but none of them survived our Zone 9b heat. You might need a climate-controlled coop that also controls humidity so you can keep them closer to 84f.

@SlackerU I will be careful with them. Your neighbor's situation sounds like there is more that caused them all to die besides heat. I've had pure breed Ameraucanas in FL before and never lost one to heat. Although chickens in general prefer temps above 40 and below 75. Hot temps in the 90s does add stress. I make sure to supply plenty of cool water and lots of shade. Plus dust bathing in cool dirt brings their body temps down too. A chicken core temp is 95.

@@colesbackyardcoop He has become a huge fan of turkens. I guess the naked-necks release heat quite well. I wouldn't disagree that he could have better drainage for the sewage-disposal-area needed for the hens, though he does free-range when weather allows.

@@SlackerUThat's good. I've never had the Turkens. Interesting looking birds, kinda buzzard like. I keep different breeds for fun and their egg color The videos and shorts I make are not for profit. Nothing fancy and not interest in going viral...lol! Some of the content creators work to keep up a high level of views to profit. In a few years I probably won't keep chickens anymore as we will be traveling in our retirement years. Always good to see your comments and input. New video coming soon on the new flock. Take care.

@@georgemichaels2325 Thanks 😊

@@jefflandry3 local tractor supply or rural king. Thanks for watching 😊

@@jbland7683 Yes I agree. Each chicken has a personality. Some are naughty brats but we love them. Thanks for watching 😊

@@lisak7418 I sold them to a good home a few months ago. I had to travel and didn't have anyone to watch. I'm ready to start over now. I'm getting started pullets locally that are 5 months old. I'm excited to get them ☺️

You had such a nice flock.

@@lisak7418 Thanks. It was hard to part with them. This next one will be nice too.

@@楠夢羽 Awesome to know. Definitely hummingbird like. It is beautiful! I was hoping someone would identify it. Thanks 😊

@@colesbackyardcoop You’re welcome! i used to grow up with these things at my uncles all the time, used to think they were birds, super cool!

@@Drzm_Gracias 😊

@@colesbackyardcoopyou don’t speak Spanish do you-……

@@Girlbye69-i8v no....lol 😆

@@colesbackyardcoop I could tell 😂

Encontré uno de estos insectos pero accidentalmente lo mate

@@cruzito4life571 hello. Yes that sounds like a sprain. Watch her to see that she gets better in a week or so. Good luck and thanks for watching 😊

@@stephstafford837 If it is a true Bielefelder, it will look exactly like mine. Welsummer also look a little like a Bielefelder as well. Compare to Google search pics and see if that helps. Good luck and thanks for watching 😊

@@colesbackyardcoop it’s only like 3ish plus weeks old 😞

@@stephstafford837 oh...it's hard to tell that small until the feathers come in. I hope it's a girl. Usually any breed birds are boys. If it gets a big comb at 6 weeks, it's a roo.

@@colesbackyardcoop golly I was hoping it wasn’t but it is definitely a profound comb on its head !!! 😞😞

@@luketilley9137 You will love having this beautiful breed. The hens are good layers, 5 to 6 eggs a week. Thanks for watching 😊

Hello. The chick should be ok if you see that the chick is eating and drinking ok. The eyes will heal quickly now that you separated it. Once the eyes are healed up, I would put another chick the same size with that one for company. Watch the broody to be sure she doesn't hurt any other chicks, if so separate all the chicks from her. I had a bad broody once that would pick her chicks away. She didn't like raising babies. Good luck 👍 💓

@@colesbackyardcoop thank you so much 1st for answering back 2 for helping me out with this! I can’t believe how brutal but she kept stealing eggs so all hatched times are so far apart! Plus it’s over 100 outside! I wouldn’t want to be on a nest 🪺 🤦🏻‍♀️ Thank you again I’ll be running to TSC as soon as granddaughter gets pu ❤️

Yes, if I have enough to sell. Thanks for watching 😊

Hello. They were Barred Rocks....hens! Thanks for watching 😊

I love reading your story of your spoiled babies. Thanks for sharing and watching my videos.

Thanks! I love my orchids. They bloom for me every year. I have one that is 10 years old still blooming strong.

Thanks so much 😊

Hello Joy. I use straw or hay in the run as it offers a great way to minimize excess messy poop. It stickys to the hay or straw and makes it so easy to clean up the poop patty. Plus hardly ever see dirty feet either. It does not get moldy as my run receives full sun part of the day which the UV light keeps my run nice and dry and free of any mold or bacteria. No lice or mites as I sprinkle DE in the run. Good for the chickens when they dust bathe too. Even when it rains hard, my run is dry within a day due to good drainage and sunlight. If a run is staying wet or damp continuously to the point of mold growth there is a bigger issue that needs to be addressed. I use high quality garden soil for my base. Keep in mind your chickens will eat the dirt and I prefer using rich soil they would find if they free ranged. Hope that answered your questions.

Hello. It sounds like she is doing OK except for that hop. Call an avian vet that could further exam her and suggest a permanent solution. I have a Buff Orpington hen with a limp and she lives happy in the flock. Her injury is a sprain. It heals but then she will limp again when she does too much digging or scratching. I massage her leg and it helps. Try the avian vet as an option. Good luck!

He is gorgeous 😍

Oh wow. Glad she is ok. Thankfully I've never had that happen.

Thanks so much 😊

Thank you 😊

I only add water about the last couple of days before hatch. For some reason the humidity stays at twenty to forty percent anyway, w/o water. But at fifty-five to seventy percent humidity it seems to give a smooth hatch.

I believe so....I've seen several like that one and lots of other kinds. I love attracting butterflies and bees 🐝 🦋

@@colesbackyardcoopI have a garden planted all around my 14x45ft chicken run on the outside of the fence , and I plant various flowering shrubs and perennials to attract , butterflies, hummingbirds, bees, including bumbles and hummingbird moths , plus it makes a nice landscape for my chicken run

@@joyadams507 sounds beautiful! I love flower gardens. I've attracted a few hummingbirds. Mostly the butterflies big and small, various bees and other pollinators. So enjoyable to watch.

Thanks so much Torben 😊 🙏
