I read that originally (before 1930) Red velvet cake (devils food cake) got it's red color from the chemical reaction of non-alkalized cocoa and buttermilk reacting together. I really really want to try it but I can't find a recipe anywhere!! Does anyone have one? Even if it is a sketchy (splash...

Hi! My family has been invited to a dear friend's wedding in Boulder, CO. We are 4 adults, 3 teens (13-17) and 3 kids (6-11) and 1 baby. I have raised chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys and goats. So I can watch your animals for you no problem. The kids are use to being around animals and taking...

For the 3 years that I had chickens we fought with the city over them, someone called the news early on and they have been following it. Many of you have seen earlier stories, were I was saying that it was discrimination and not about chickens, well this proves it. Enjoy! and please give me...

Post your favorite song! I would love to hear them, I love music and I am sure others around here do also! I love this song and I wanted to share it. The quality is a bit stinky but the sound is great. I can only understand part of the song (I don't speak Moroccan) but it is something about...

I have been looking at hives, but I don't really know what I am looking at, can anyone tell me if this is a good deal? Thank you! http://cgi.ebay.com/BEEKEEPING-5-Frame-Garden-BEE-HIVE-Complete-Painted-/150510247079?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item230b1c1ca7

I cartoonized my 6 year old sister to be Cinderella. Needless to say she is very happy with it and loves being a princess.

Many of you are worried about how loud your hens are--for real not preferences. Well I have how loud they are for real! Decibels measure noise. I bought a decibel meter at Radioshack and did a little bit of experimenting and I found this. A leghorn hen at the peak of her egg song is: 78 Db...

and she is only 14 weeks old! I got my first duck egg from my 14 week old Khaki Campbell 4 days ago, and now 2 others are laying! I wasn't sure it was a duck egg until I saw her laying it! It smells kind of fishy but it tastes just like a chicken egg. Here is a picture of it next to my...

I am going to have 3-4 pallet available soon, and I was thinking to build a brooder. I have never built something before (but I have put together prefab things so I can use tools), and I don't have a lot of storage space so I was thinking to do hinges on the sides to that it can fold. I never...

I had a problem with moldy feed, so I asked a friend (who is a poultry feed expert) what to do to help them get over it and he said that if the feed doesn't have a Toxin Binder (mold inhibitor) I should get one fro them. Has anyone ever heard of this? where would I get it? which feeds have it...

It is making this 'nest' on an Orange tree leaf, and is about the size of a bee. Thank you!

They are about 18 weeks old, they are my neighbor's and he is wondering what breed they are, he got them at a feed store and they were white as chicks. I am pretty sure that they are all hens, since none of them are crowing and I don't see any hackle or tail feathers. They have thick yellow...

My favorite Black Andalusian hen started crowing, I know that she is a hen because she lays eggs. She is almost a year old and 3 days ago she stopped laying eggs and has started a pathetic crow, several times a day. I cannot have roosters here because of crowing, but I remember reading on BYC...

Last week I gave a laying hen to this guy that said he needed eggs, she was kind of mean and he had a nice coop setup so I didn't mind giving her away. I was just browsing CL and I saw her for sale! $15 and I know that it is her because he put his phone number up! I am upset, if he doesn't like...

I got her from MPC last summer, and I love her! I want to get more like her but I am not sure on her breed! She weighs 3 pounds, is all black, calm, with skinny slate legs and pink soles and lays a medium sized white egg almost everyday. Thank you! ETA: her comb was not pecked of in the back...

I just had to share this, my BR hen was laying an egg when my 9 week old partridge rock decided to join her! and she didn't mind at all!
