| Yes, that's the one, Greg. It's a fine coop, but I don't really see it being all that sturdy if out in the elements. I needed something to keep in the house. All the sections are large. The ends have the legs, wire, complete frame. You just bolt the 2 ends to the front section, which is all complete, then put on the back, drop the floor in, and slide the catch tray in. I have not put the roof on. Nor did I put the roost pole in yet. The roof section has regular roofing material, that grit stuff. There is an egg collecting opening in the back but not a nest box. I bolted the cover on tightly. Georgia --- On Fri, 4/30/10, Cherokee_Greg <shadowgr@pacbell.

will a hen eat a broken egg left in its nest?
Those little chicks are so cute. If the barred hen has a rose comb it could be a dominique.

Georgia,
Was that the Chick-N-Hutch by Ware?
I think I just bought one also, but was unsure if I should keep it as I didn't think it was raccoon proof. I might keep it in a fenced enclosure. How many Bantams do you think would be comfortable in there? Finding an affordable 4x4 coop that would be attractive enough
