I am in the beginning of my chicken journey so I am not nearly ready to be bored. But I see how the mundane jobs (cleaning poop, de-bugging the coop) can get tedious.
For this reason I am trying to keep my flock small (there are 9 birds now) so I don’t overwhelm myself.

I think I will do this! It is so simple, and live mealworms have to be better for the birds than freeze-dried.

I liked this article. I would have liked more information on the taming/discipline part. I think I would like to have a rooster, but I admit I am a little afraid.

Good article, it speaks to many of the points that I am concerned with. So far I have no roosters, and I don’t know if I will want one. I am a little nervous about that. That’s why I appreciate articles like this one.

I actually read this article a few months ago, after which I began accumulating the items listed here, and even a few other things.
I am so glad, too, because I have had to use some of the items in my First Aid kit several times already.
