Instructions on how to post a photo. First, you need to load your photos onto a website. The 2 most common sites people use are PhotoBucket and Aussie Chicks.
Once you've registered and uploaded your photos, for Aussie Chicks click on the photo you want to post so it's the only photo that appears on the page. Right click ON the photo and click on 'properties'. When the box pops up, copy the entire URL address that is there. An easy way is, right click ON the address and click select all. Then right click again and click copy. Close that properties box and come back here and open a new message. You can now either put that address in the 'optional image URL' box (right click in the box and click on paste) or you can click on the 'EBCode legend' at the bottom of the page to show you the code to put more than one picture per message.
If you're using Photo Bucket, find the picture you want to post. Under the photos are 3 boxes with addresses in them. Copy the address in the bottom box (IMG) and come back here and open a new (or existing) message and copy that address into the main window where you type your message. This 'code' is the same one you'd find in the EBCode legend. To add more than one photo, repeat the above steps. Only put one address per line.
Remember, if you are buying or selling stock, add your location and email address to your message so people know where you are!

My coop is an A-frame mobile tractor. Just one perch 50cms off the ground same height as nest boxes at each end. I trained them not to sleep in the nest boxes by blocking the boxes off at night. One nest box is blocked off all the time as one is adequate for their laying needs. I don't need to block it off any more as they have learned its for laying in not sleeping. The roosting on the ground behavour started about 7 weeks ago, two weeks after I added two new pullets. The newbies started roosting on the ground. They are sometimes joined by various others but never by the boss chook. Could be for warmth though they would get this up top where it is more sheltered. The bottom is mesh and open to the wind.
