    Hi Sharen. I'm sorry but I had a hard time finding people to split my orders with on a regular basis so after a few orders I stopped raising meat birds. Alex

    WANT TO BUY: One of each pullet.. Cuckoo Marans, Light Sussex, and either California White or Leghorn. If possible I would prefer 4 weeks and older so they can stay outdoors. A plus if they are vaccinated. Thanks!

    Practice beheading chickens.

    Up until now I've been using a hatchet. It works for me but it gets messy. I'm considering to try cutting into the jugular vein but I'm a little squeemish although I am willing to try overcoming it. Should I be cutting only one side or should I cut both sides? Does it matter? Does cutting both...

    I might have someone taking all my extras tomorrow but if you are interested I will be ordering them every month. I am always looking for people to split the order with and save some money. Actually they are ready to harvest at 8 to 10 weeks old.

    Practice beheading chickens.

    There is an easy way to secure their head. Take some twine and make a loop like a lasso. Run the twine through the loop and tie the other end to the end of the chopping block (you can put a nail in the chopping block to tie the twine to). Put the chicken's head into the loop, slightly tighten...

    Shipping Emergency!!!!!

    So typical of USPS. Last year I ordered a pair of show quality canaries and the same thing happened. After several phone calls and complaints they figured out that it was placed on a wrong truck and was heading hundreds of miles away up north. Several more phone calls and escalations later they...

    Has anyone ever used Decorah Hatchery?

    I had a negative experience with them recently. I called Steve from Decorah Hatchery and he rushed me off the phone. He wasn't willing to answer a couple questions and told me to just email him. He said "Gotta Go" *CLICK* and hangs up the phone on me.. So I emailed him to inquire about...

    Southern California Poultry Processors?

    I processed 6 of them in my yard a few weeks ago. I have tall bushes so nobody can see into my yard but it was just too much work for me to do it every month. Maybe I'll just make a trip to Perris each month on a weekend with the family and have the lady out there do it while we're out shopping...
