Pro - Does anyone else's nest boxes get soaked in rain?

My two new ladies - Anna (a geeno blue) and Margo (a hybrid light sussex).

What lovely lucky girls how old, they look quite young

We got them at point of lay - 15 weeks. They are now nearly 18 weeks and have started squatting as we approach so hopefully eggs soon. Just as long as our naughty original two stop terrorising them - after nearly 3 weeks of living in adjacent runs with just a wire mesh between them , I have finally taken the plunge and mixed them. Very stressful! Even with me constantly distracting the older ones with treats in their free range area - they still keep popping into the WIR to chase the poor newbies about! Phew - need more wine to cope with thus!

Lovely girls, I hope they all mix together ok for you.

I really like the swinging rope ladder type thing you have made

They look lovely, bet you're looking forward to some different coloured eggs soon too.
