Getting back to silliness, I have been talking to my mom and dad about chickens and egg color genetics. My mom asked me a few days ago if a rooster had any influence o egg color. It took me a while to realize she meant the hen's eggs, not the resulting chick.

I didn't mind the joke (all it insulted was long delays and strange legalities causing trouble) but the arguing and demands of 'my political opinion mentioned and nothing else or it's not funny nearly drove me to abandon this thread.

Is this like that Florida law that states you can't take a kangaroo into a barbershop?

If anyone is kind enough to tell me how to add a signature, I'd be very grateful.

Moving to a new place and I can finally have chickens. Anyone know how to keep a dog from digging under the fence and getting into the run?

I am buying chicks in the spring. If I need to buy online, the minimum is five, while I only want four. I am heavily considering getting an Ameraucana blue splash or either gender as the fifth to sell or trade to someone. I live in the bay area/northern California. Would you be interested...

I'm looking to add color to my egg basket. I'm looking for an Austra White, a hybrid blue-egger, and a hybrid green-egger. Free Rooster(s) if you can breed these.

No, it's a real thing, scientifically proven decades ago and everything. Rabbit is unlike most other meats as it is much more lean than they are. There is no such thing as chicken starvation or cow starvation (heck, there are many civilizations that lasted years on one single source of meat...

Bay Area here. I'm moving from Berkeley to Bonita (chicken friendlier). I'm still planning my flock, though.

Those are some awesome lookin' birds' lizanne. Still lookin' for someone here interested in an ameracauna.

Sadly, my mom won't allow a rooster. I'd sell someone else an ameracauna rooster if they'd breed him with my hens.

I'm trying to find a way to do that. I want to breed a blue Ameracauna to a Wyandotte and an Austra, but my mom does not want a roo. I'm looking for either someone with a roo that carries the blue egg gene and the right colors (black, white, or both) for feathers or who will by my roo and is...

It depends on how far you want to go with self sufficiency. Can you grow or grind your own flour? If not, you can still make your own bread and pasta, which I've heard are delicious. You can try a water wheel if you have a source of running water. Sugarcane requires heat, but is easy to...

I'm so excited! I'm getting chickens next summer or spring. I'm going to repaint my room, then start on building my veggie patch and chicken run. Any of you guys stud roosters?

Are there hatcheries in or close to the bay area (google hates me) that sell a wide variety of friendly breeds? I will have to use MPC if there aren't any, but I'd like to know first.

Awesome. I want to repel coons and maybe a dog or deer, but I don't want my outdoor cat driven away (she can poo anywhere in my garden but my veggies).

I'd take him, but my family doesn't want a roo. Even a cute quiet one.

Has anyone has good luck with these? What were the active ingredients? Is it possible they can be too powerful (bothering neighbors' dogs or your own cat)?

The list said flag (iris) was bad. Perhaps it's just a certain kind of iris. At least they'll stay away from my sugarcane. Any flowers they won't eat that like to live around ponds?

Nope. Not for other neighbors either, from what they say.
