    Heritage Large Fowl - Phase II

    All the black chick I've had with light toes ended up with fully dark legs. It'll go away. Food is all what you're used to and how desperate you are. I ate some things as a kid that most others would find revolting (I -love- smoked eel... blood sausage.. liverwurst. Nummy, num, num), but on the...

    Heritage Large Fowl - Phase II

    That's too funny. In Europe they sell the tripe in plastic containers, for dogs. I can tell you, it's about the same price as a can of Alpo. Never thought to get it from the source. I just remember that stuff stinking to high heavens. And beef tongue (and brain.. until mad cow disease) is a...

    Brazilian waxing for chickens. It would be hilarious.. if it wasn't so very true. I got some birds that are WAY too fluffy back there..

    Heritage Large Fowl - Phase II

    Semi-related question: How did you folks find a place where you were able to breed chickens? What are the channels to go through? I've tried searching the varied 'farm/land for sale' websites, but they're all MASSIVE amounts of land, often hunting type land, and nowhere close to affordable...

    They sell that to farmers in bulk to amend soil as well.

    Heritage Large Fowl - Phase II

    Holy cow, I didn't even THINK about monkey grass... I'm so dense I've got the stuff growing only feet away from my incredibly muddy run and I'm just wishing and praying and thinking about what I could possibly grow that wouldn't be destroyed by the ladies. DUH! They've never messed with it...

    Heritage Large Fowl - Phase II

    I heard masonry/river sand is the way to go. Something not too fine (fine gets stinky and dusty).
