We are in southern Fremont county and the smoke and ash has been terrible. Thankfully we are not in the path of the fire. I hope everyone and their flocks are doing well and in no danger.
I've made an evacuation plan for all my animals tho, we lived in Florida for a while and had evac bags for...
Does anyone along the front range have turkey hatching eggs? I have a very stubborn broody hen, i fugured i would let her try to hatch. Im good on chickens now, but currently am suffering from turkey math lol
I was in a similar position, i have a large covered patio,so i made a brooder box out of some scrap 2x2s and ply wood. Took less than an hour, and i was able to move them in. The heat lamps went out too. I covered half the top with ply wood, half with wire. Worked great, they stayed warm, and i...
Just wanted to post and ask y'all to pass along to anyone who may be interested that i have 2 black Flemish Giant does left for sale. Will be ready on saturday, march 5th. Also posted to bst thread. Willing to meet for delivery. Thank you!!
Ive used a warm wash cloth, hold it against the paste, to soften it, then gently rub away. One was severe when i got it, soaked then used childrens safety scissors, round tip, to trim the feathers.This was no pain vs plucking. Took several tries to be completely clean, but after the first wash...
Thank you for posting this, i needed a giggle and this was perfect! Scary true, but accurate lol. Just brought home 12 meaties, went in for just feed, dh said fine, get a few.... Um 12 isnt that many. They had 50 lol. I was proud of my self restraint!
There had been bantams listed in the pueblo craigslist, farm section tge other day. Saw them while posting my rabbits. I dont recall age, but maybe check it out. They may have some that would work for you
Just wanted to post we have Flemish giant rabbits for sale. Ready between March 7-12th. Also posted in B.S.T. forum. Great pets or meat rabbits. Feed conversion isnt as good, but they are large, beautiful, and laid back. For us those traits make up for the feed. $38. Neg. Pm if interested.
So approximately $20 each. Can you raise the turkeys with the chickens but provide them with their own roosts? Or should they have their own coop/run? [/quote I seen some people having success with a mixed flock, but due to a blackhead risk, feed requirements, the size difference and possible...
megshenhut, suncatcher, klbcos, and anyone else interested of course
Here is a sample order from Mcmurray. I copied and pasted the information and went thru to "checkout" to get the shipping costs. Please let me know if you are interested. I created the order with 18 bids, we can of course...
I havent had wild turkey, my family hunts large game, no birds. These will be food. Really excited! We had one of our own chickens for dinner tonight, and it was soooo good!
I want late april, early may. Depending on availability of course. I would prefer to have mild temps ( maybe lol) on their arrival. Perhaps it will improve the odds againt losing any. This will be my first time with them so im trying to be cautious. I welcome any insight or recommendations from...
Im leaning towards murray mcmurray to order. I want to place it by early january to improve the odds of breed and ship dates. I want bourbon red and slates, delivered in early spring. I would much rather share an order with byc folk than try to place extras locally.if anyone has had good luck...
