    Yeti ice chest/cooler

    Does anyone own one. I was looking at them and decided they must be insulated with gold, they nare HIGH priced. Just wondering if they are that much better than an Igloo or Coleman ice chest.

    Barter

    Had a neighbor stop in this morning, answered the door and he was carrying a plastic tub. He said he had come for some eggs; I laughed and said "you have come to the right place". My wife opened the refrigerator and set out the egg drawer and said "Have at it". He got about a dozen and a half...

    Trees

    Am I the only one that likes trees? I love planting trees and I mean not for profit trees. The first time I saw a birds nest in a tree I planted I was over joyed. I see people cutting down majestic old trees when they could just as easily worked around it. Don't get me wrong, I am not what I...

    Poached egg in the shell

    I am sure most of you have seen someone frying an egg on the sidewalk to show how hot it is. Well we had a first, my wife gathered the eggs (5) and had them in a plastic bag on the back of the golf cart. She got busy with the garden and forgot about the eggs. They stayed on the golf cart with...

    How hot is to hot?

    I have a complete open air coop/run, very spacious for 5 hens. The temperature has been hovering around 100 degrees with high humidity. We keep plenty of water on hand and have shade cloth on all but a small portion of the pen. Do I need to worry about the heat? I can always rig up a fan but I...

    How to cook a steak

    OK, I don't eat chicken but I will swallow a beef steak whole. I have cooked a bunch (big green egg) and eaten a bunch, but I just ain't got it down pat. I realize it starts with a fine cut of meat, but how do you cook it. T-Bone or Rib-Eye, rare, medium, done, well done, I like um all. There...

    Crickets

    Chickens are moody, if you get them out of their routine they retaliate, no eggs. We did a lot of work in and out of the run yesterday and today and they rewarded us with one egg. That’s 1 for 5, not good. Jumped in the truck and headed to the Supperette and bought $5.00 worth of crickets. She...

    Lying down like a dog

    I have 5 Red Star hens and two of them like to lie on their side in the sun. I walk up to the run and think "O crap" two of them have died, they then get up and go about their business. Is this normal?

    Why is it?

    I told a neighbor of mine that we were getting our first chickens. He chuckled and said "enjoy them, but remember everything wants to eat them" I thought this was good advice.

    First Time Owner

    We've gone to great lengths to build a good habitat for our chickens. They will be delivered in about two weeks and we've been working on their coop/pen for a while to make life easy for them. We are only getting laying hens, no roosters and we have only 5 hens coming. We don't want to sell...
