Last month I raked leaves into big piles and let them sit in the yard. Today I moved those piled into the run for my girls. They are having fun exploring the huge leaf mound.
Have any of you slaughtered a rooster for meat? Are they good? I cooked a particularly noisy rooster last week, and he looked good, but while my back was turned, my dog STOLE him off the counter! Doggy reported he was yummy, but I can't confirm because I didn't even get one bite.
Well I found this thread! I'm happy I found my peeps! I'm a newbie and I don't have my coop built yet. Right now I'm repurposing the crate that my piano was shipped in.
Bought 6 egg laying pullets from Tractor Supply 2 weeks ago. I think Daryl said they were 1.5 weeks old, but can't remember. I bought feed and watering stuff and wood chips. I've got my garage cleaned up and ready to build my coop. Looking forward to putting them outside.
