Teresa and Jane,
Thank you for sticking up for the newbies. I have had chickens in the past, but still fairly new at the raising chicken thing. I feel more confident once they are old enough to be in the pin instead of a cage. But even then I still have questions.
I asked one a little while back about a perch, and never got a answer, I felt a little down about that. I don 't know if the hen house is big enough for a perch, but probably is, it's about 4 ft high inside, and 3 1/2 feet in wideth. How high from the floor should I place the perchs? I'm getting 6 chicks today, and I want to make sure they all have room and place to perch or roost.
Thank you

I will wholeheartedly AGREE to this Jane!! And that for one, is why I have more or less quit even writing into this group at all. I got tired of being talked down to, and more importantly, it being allowed for her to get snide and rude, but should someone else try to stand up for themselves, it getting censored and not being let through to the list. IN short this list kind of went from a place that I felt ok to ask questions on about my chickens and newbie-ness about them to one that has about turned me away from asking any, read when I can and just try to figure it out best as I can. I don't think anyone should be allowed to be rude to newbies just cause they ask a question that may sound dumb, repeated, or whatnot to some of the other more experienced members. For one We all put our pants on the same way in the morning, and everyone had to start somewhere. We'll see if this one makes it through or not....................................................
