    Review by 'Anonymous' in article 'Uzuris Chicken Coop Tractor'

    The instructions are a bit hard to follow if you are trying to build a replica of this coop because of the storytelling. Nothing wrong with it, it's just not easy if you're interested in clear outlined instruction. I couldn't get through the whole article. Sorry

    ISO Americauna hens SW Pennsylvania

    Are you still looking? I have some that are 5-6 weeks old but I'm waiting until they get a little older to identify my 2 roos in the flock before selling any hens. I don't manually sex my birds as it risks injury. I could probably sell you 2-3 hens. Central NJ

    If you kept only one breed...

    Hard one, probably barred rock, bielefelder, or New Hampshire, leaning towards bielefelders. I love my colorful eggs but for sustainability I'd have to say these 3.

    Done! Everyone is well separated but able to see one another. I thought since they were about the same size that it would be fine but clearly not! Thank you so much!

    Fighting Ganders and broodies geese all mixed together, can it work?!

    OMGoodness! I hadn't even thought about the fact that I'll likely have more gander goslings, but the 2nd generation will largely be for consumption/sale so a little less of a problem but I definitely don't need or want 40 geese ( 3 of the ones I have already were sent by accident). Now that I...

    Fighting Ganders and broodies geese all mixed together, can it work?!

We have 1 very broody Embden goose that stays on her nest, and at least two others, 1 Toulouse and 1 other Embden, that sit often on 3...

    Geese standing on each others backs - Is this normal?

    Why are my geese standing on each other backs? I have 10 geese, 3 toulouse females and 1 gander, 3 Embden geese and 3 ganders (I think, I was given 3 extra geese by accident so I'm guestimating based on behavior). I think we have two Embden pairs, a Toulouse pair, and a crossed pair which is...

    That's an awesome idea! I'm sitting here trying to figure out how to winterize my tractors, with a mountain of inedible hay bales on the field that I'm putting in the garden. Thank you sooo much! Love this forum!
