    Trici neo

    I've read the threads here on treating bumble foot with tricide neo. One question I have and didn't see it addressed. Is there an egg withdrawal needed? TIA

    Need suggestions to keep coop warm in winter!

    We are similar with a 10×10 shed/8 hens. There is cross ventilation near ceiling. Different than most, I do close up all windows and doors after they are settled for the night...including their run access door. Curtains over windows. There is a steady breeze and I don't trust it will make for...

    Northern Georgia run ground cover

    Just add more. I soak about 1/2 a bag in just enough water to expand it ..about once a month and lightly rake it in. I now use it in the nest boxes too.

    Northern Georgia run ground cover

    Since I posted this thread I have mixed in semi expanded (mix with water) pine pellets with the sand. It works great. The run is 'covered' but a hard rain blows in easily. I add it pine pellet just along the outside edge and it does a great job of absorbing the rain. I then eventually mix it in...

    Topic of the Week - Chicken Behaviour and Flock Dynamics Part 2 - Bullying Behaviour

    I never had obvious or really extreme bullying with the last flock I had. This new flock...oy! I just noticed today a wayndotte chasing and pecking my biggest girl..a buckeye. The Buckeye (Big Boo) is docile and sweet...which I believe is why the Wayndotte (Piper) zeros in on her. I did grab...

    Concerned..

    That's been my thinking 👍...just wondered if other had seen this. I just picked her up...she was not happy...lol The large round area was hard to define this time...it kinda surprised me. Just seemed more densely feathered.

    Concerned..

    This Partridge Rock girl is almost 20 wks. I noticed weeks ago that she carried her tail down all the time.she is clear of all diseases, eats, drinks,poops and acts completely normal. She's not depressed and is acti e in the flock. Last week I examed her and that fluffy area in the higher tail...

    Nature Crest feed

    Anyone in the SouthEast use this line of feed? Thoughts/experiences. Only down side for me is my wheat allergy when handling...but I am willing to risk if it's worth it. https://tuckermilling.com/gmo-free/ TIA

    Buckeye question

    Thanks for the replies! I just noticed last night...I want to say the are rounded, but will get a picture as soon as rain stops. I questioned it because my other buckeye does not have the iridescent collar...but they are still getting their adult feathering in. Stay tuned!

    Buckeye question

    My girls (mixed flock of GLW, PartridgeRocks and Buckeyes) are approx 14.5 wks. They are of course molting and getting their big girl feathering. I noticed one of the Buckeyes is developing obvious iridescent feathering around neck (collar)..is this possible with hens? Or do I have a cockerel in...

    Straw over sand in coop

    I am not a fan of pine shavings, tried that yrs ago.if I layer and add for months I may get a semi deep method. There is far less smell after I started spreading straw. I do love hearing all the different ways people address their coops/runs. Thanks!
