@Tomtommom - It's difficult to put the answer to that question into words. Let the pictures and films answer that for us. Victims of last year's super storm were trying to get back on their feet. They have not fully recovered yet here comes another super storm.
Some families that were hit by...
If the path stays or move farther north, I think we can "weather the storm". With those scenarios laid out, a genset is not feasible. Instead of acquiring an asset, it can easily become a liability especially you're not there most of the time.
Switching to solar is to our advantage since we...
A sack of rice husks in the city is a bit pricey. I bought 2 bags for P25 each. You mentioned you can get it at a very low cost and sometimes free, therefore it should be cheaper than what I'm buying it for.
Great looking coop and fine birds you got there, Rob.
@ozexpat , I now have 20 Kabir chicks but my wife is already complaining with the unpleasant smell. We are in a subdivision, a tight space with neighbors on both sides and back. I already moved half of them to my mom's place where they can...
OMG you're in Dumauguete. I had no idea it's this soon. How's the road Oz? Hope the typhoon didn't damage the already damaged road.
Anyway, welcome to the city of gentle people and hope you enjoy your stay. Cheers!
Oz sells pullets of different imported breeds. This way you can have eggs in few weeks time. If you want to breed them, Oz also has trios. Check his website to see all his imported breeds.

@ozexpat , I took your advise on the supplement for my chicks which is to give them when they need them. I was overreacting seeing them not eating (coz they're sleeping.. lol) and thought they're weak. It's been a week since I got them...
Do you sell 21-day-old chicks? I'll PM you my contact details once you're back. And if you may, I would love to pick em up myself so I can as well see your other breeds in person.
As much as possible, I don't want to give meds nor hormones to my chicks. I want everything organic.
I just want my chicks to grow healthy that's why I was thinking of supplements to keep them active as weak chicks are prone to illnesses. Perhaps from 4 weeks onward they will be able to adapt...
Hello to all BYC Philippines Subscribers!
I just bumped into this thread while doing research in raising chickens. I found Oz' BYC diary sometime last week and now this. Indeed, I've learned a lot of things by just reading these threads.
I'm a rookie in raising chickens and have little to...
That's pretty awkward to celebrate a birthday. Lol!
Well, let me give you an advance greeting, Happy Birthday!!!
Excited to get my coop started. Hopefully I can get it done before the end of next Nov. Are you coming back to the Phils. soon? Anyway if you're not here, I'll just PM you...
Simply amazing! It's good to know that you're familiar with my place. Small world indeed. I've been to Cauayan as well in a resort called Punta Bullata.
I'm driving to Ayungon this weekend with my family. You know, November 1st and 2nd are big holidays in the Philippines - visiting our loved...
