The idea is simple: you take a rooster from a breed of dark brown laying chickens and breed it with a hen who lays blue eggs. But...

Hey, ya'll! I'm planning on going to a nearby Tractor Supply store for their event, Backyard Poultry. I'm wondering if anyone has attended an event like this in their state, and what should I expect to see? Will people be selling eggs, and chicks, or is it mainly an education event?

Hi! This chick season I am hoping to get a roo, but for that to happen I would have to convince my dad that when he grows up he won't be waking him up early every morning. I have seen the Rooster Collar for sale on Mypetchicken.com, and am in love with the way it gently prevents Roosters from...
