    What do you do with deceased chickens?

    We also just give them a loving burial and start a new compost pile on top of them. I know this might sound harsh, but I think it's a good way to use everything that the chickens have to offer, even when they are no longer with us.

    Post pics of your chicks thread!!!

    Haha, I wish I had some magical way to figure out the sex of baby chicks! That would be great! I think that after 12 weeks, if there are no visible signs of a rooster (bright red enlarged comb and waddles) then you might just have a beautiful bunch of girlies!

    These are the pictures I took when we first got our chicks, I had no idea what gender they were then. Now they are about 2 months old and it is VERY clear that we have a rooster, haha.

    MY first vegetable garden

    I'm excited more people are getting into gardening and growing their own food! I would think about growing as much as you can vertically by trellising things like your tomatoes, cucumbers, beans, etc. It helps in saving room on the ground, room that you could use to grow even more veggies!
