feemcg Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 Normally I have 8 big girls in the cube, 4 in the purple eglu and the 2 youngest chickens and 2 ducks in the pink eglu (all the runs are open into one another now). I went out tonight to try out my new head lamp (which is fantastic, a must for chicken-keepers) and the pink eglu was empty - yes, 6 chickens and 2 ducks in one eglu .

I've been thinking I can't ask 6 hens to sleep in one eglu! Maybe I can?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
