Mmmmmm What size shed do they need for four?

A basic basic wooden shed 6x4 they're not too expensive will give them plenty of room. That's what mine are in

Looking at your photo's of your hens you've got plenty of grass, you'll never need worry about cutting it again

The only other thing they need is Sharp sand and a bit of corn at night

They follow you round like dogs

Crumb even gets in the dogs bed at times

But I wouln't be without now, and up until a year ago I was scared stiff of the things!

The eggs are good too

So crumb sleeps in the house at night? :o

Vember · « **Reply #24 on:** August 01, 2008, 11:09 »

She used to before we got the others :shock: In a cage next to my bed

But they're all in the shed at night now, but they wonder in the house every so often during the day

OMG you have loads. Wow Lucky you. What do you do with all you eggs?

Vember · « **Reply #28 on:** August 01, 2008, 11:38 »

Give them away

I have the birds as pets more than for the eggs, they've helped me over come so much, find them very relaxing and an absolute joy, all have very diffrent personalities and so much fun.

Don't know what i'd do with out them

I must addmit mine are very very funny. I will be working away 100 meters from the coop and a head pops up. I did not know that they would range so far. They are not doing any harm though.
