my husband had once told me that the best way to de-feather or pluck a bird is to boil it and the feathers just kinda fall out with hardly being touched... idk if this works or not or if its anything you'd want to do or anything.

I am the mother of two kids and it sounds to me like you either need to file a harassment complaint on her or maybe even a restraining order stating that if she steps within ten feet of your children she will be arrested. I don't care how old the lady is, even if she was 110 years old.... If...

How about Hope like chickenman8 said? The name Hope given to such a sweet little survivor I think would be a wonderful name because this one little chick and her story make all the difference in the world and gives hope to those with sick chickens just like her. I'm not looking for a prize, but...

Hello everyone! I was searching through the google image search for pictures of Buff Laced Polish like I usually do and when I clicked on a picture a page about a story of a flock of free range Buff Laced Polish chickens came up on a blog this Farmer had wrote, and the story and pictures were...
