Our goats and pigs keep getting into the garden.

I ordered a sawmill today. It'll be great to be able to use all the trees and get some projects done.

I've moved them like that, and if you make sure you can always see them in the mirror, or have a spotter with you it doesn't hurt as long as you go slow, cows are not marathon runners. But we had plans for the little guy and he was our first and only calf.

We had a calf. He and his mama got out last week and a neighbor tried to be helpful and tied them to his truck and drove them home. Apparently he fell and the guy dragged him all the way home, he was dead when he got to our house. Said sorry, didn't offer any reimbursement.

Wanting them just to have and maybe breed, that's why I'd like good ones and not just from the commercial hatchery. Also for 4h for my daughter I'd like reds and silver Grey, whatever I can find too. Thanks for the info, I'll keep my eyes open.

Thanks, I've been around for quite a while, just don't post.

Looking for some Dorkings and Rhode Island Whites in Southern Indiana. Let me know who has some, or who might have some. Thanks.

In healthcare we'd say you conjured them. Lol

I've killed 2 coons and at least 2 possums this year. Hadn't had any in a couple of years. Also there is a fox in the neighborhood. I saw it grab 2 chickens one day. I hadn't seen it around or lost any chickens in a couple weeks, I thought it was gone. Saw it in the field across the road yesterday.

You can rent chickens?

Can anyone give me a rough price they charge for dressed turkey? We did CX chickens for the first time this year. They sold "ok" at $3/lb. but we live in a poorer area and didn't have the interest that I thought we would. I don't want to price myself out of the market on my turkeys. Thanks

I'm interested in this also.

Did you decide on a price? I'm way south of you but interested in what you figured out. Thanks

Can someone help me understand the plethora of rules and regulations regarding selling eggs in Indiana? What about selling meat chickens, butchering on my property? If I apply for a license to sell eggs at a farmers market, can my farm be inspected? I don't have anything to hide, I just...

Necro-thread... If you sell eggs does your farm ever get inspected?
