“Number one: don’t tell the landlord”

You could make a coroplast base for the coop like people do for guinea pig C&C cages, it would keep shavings from getting everywhere and it would also make for easy cleaning

Smoking weed and keeping chickens in your apartment, LOL. I'm thinking about keeping chickens in my apartment with the corona virus going on.

omg these chickens 😍

My neighbours a young couple around 30 soon to be married have a dog, 5 chickens, 7 rabbits, 5 ducks and 2 guinea pigs. The chickens and ducks sometimes go into our garden.

Is the yellow one a Easter egg layer

Have you looked covering the floor around the cage with astro turf? Idk if that's dangerous for chickens if they peck at and eat some of the synthetic grass.

John Brady we ended up putting some pet safe turf on the floor on top of the foam but it was hard to clean so we just kept it in the kitchen area not inside the coop just for them to walk around like a floor mat

Chickens wont eat something they cant eat, and even if they do accedentally swallow something bad, it will be filtered out by its crop, and then move to the stomach once it is digestible.

@@Whal3n no problem, I live in a large apt with access to a yard to allow to chickens to roam during the weekends. Iam researching to see if there is a breed of chickens that doesn't get to large, isnt known for being very noisy, and is a decent egg layer. Iam wanting these first 2 chickens for pets/egg production. My kids have never experienced any kind of farming and they will be to close to these birds for than to ever be raised as meat chickens. Once I move into a house with a yard and actually have the room I will have a group of egg layers and a group of meat chickens. I still even dont know if this is entirely possible LOL

Ron Ron it is not that bad it never smelled and the noise only got bad with one of my gals (City Slicker) and it only got bad once she started laying eggs. I did end up having to give them away because City Slicker got too loud and they were a pack of 3 but if you get quieter breeds like Silver laced Wyandotte they will be fine

You have to release them outside and put the cage there its an outdoor pets , i have also chickens and rooster

People are so weird. Keeping a chicken indoors is just as cruel as keeping a dog indoors. We all have our opinions on how to raise pets and children. Her set up Looks good to me. I’m watching because I’m getting a chick soon. I’m sharing a coop at a community garden. I’m very nervous about keeping a creature that I’m responsible for outside especially during extreme weather. I need a back up plan to sooth my anxiety. Lol

Hey, where is their water dish and food dish,I didn’t see either set in their cage? Just saw a cereal box kneenex box and paper plate upside down they acted pretty hungry when u threw them just a handful of meal worms, I mean food and water should always be in a dish for them. They need to have that all the time. Chickens outside in nature eat all day... just trying to help. :)

@Whal3n

BriTt the food and water is on a hanging wood block in the top portion of their coop actually :). I’m not incompetent I know that a living creature needs food and water which is why they have access to it at all times, just not in the bottom area so they have more space to run around and the food and water stay clean. All animals act hungry when you have treats. The boxes were for “roosting” or practice roosting on because they were too small to know how to use the actual roost at the time they were only a month or so old in this, and the upside down plate had treats on it before hand, and they do go out in nature I take them out to parks whenever I can : )
