Look around for small dairy or pork farms selling out, you might be able to pick up a grain bin for cheap and talk to a grain company about delivering bulk grain, delivery might be cheap if you have commercial farms in the area using the same company, talk around. another thing you could...
I've got meat rabbits in the same facility as chickens, though the are seperated and the rabbits are in hanging cages. I would never recommend housing rabbits on completely solid flooring especially with other animals, they're just too prone to parasites. i have seen settups where the chickens...
I'm looking for a bantam Rhode Island Red cock to use as a stud, the pullets I'm breeding conform to the SOP very nicely and I'm hoping to find a rooster that does the same. I am willing to pay a reasonable amount of money, drive or pay for shipping for the right bird. thanks!

I manage a small dairy farm and pretty much always have a folding box cutter on me, it cuts anything and the blades are about $0.04 a piece, for killing chickens my favorite tool is a small spined paring knife, victorinox does make a high quality very usable knife. If you don't feel like...

After a 5 year hiatus because of college and frequent job moves I've been able to get back into breeding and showing some birds. I've never worked with silkies before but ended up with a pretty nice pair recently. I'm wondering if someone could tell me what actually counts as a fifth toe, the...
sorry it took me so long to get back to you, i actually may have a violet neck, it is still young so it's neck has not fully turned the dark color that your probably expecting and before i say yes or no i want to double check that thats what it is.

Just over one year old bred from very nice SQ birds, due to circumstances I can not keep him, if you are interested or have questions please let me know.
Selling a very nice old english wheaton rooster, roughly one year old this spring, hatched from very nice SQ birds. If your looking for a pair I can set that up too, he is pullorum tested. PM me for details or questions.
i think that vultures dopn't have head feathers so they don't get covered in blood and other gross stuff associated with carion. Also, have you ever noticed how naked neck/turken chicks don't have feathers as day olds yet poults do? My poults quickly outgrew my chicks, but it may depends on the...
