    Rats? A Cat? Something Else? What killed my chickens?

    Thanks for sharing the update. Good luck with the rat proof coops. Is it possible for you to upload the footage and share it here next week?

    Question of the Day - Saturday, November 22nd, 2025

    In the Netherlands we have a saying ‘he has a hole in his hand’ , meaning (s)he cant keep or save money and spends his/her money not wisely. I think the English ‘money burns a hole in his pocket’ has the exact same meaning. Can you use the saying without burning too?

    Clutch size for broody hen?

    No way my Dutch can hatch 6 large eggs. Not even 6 medium sized eggs.

    Of course. Or 16 weeks? looks more like 16 weeks to me. Black Copper Maran and heritage breeds , usually start to lay at an older age. And many don’t start laying in winter.

    Time for a change? A smarter handbag maybe, with a small compartment for keys, phone ad wallet. Nothing else. And a larger one for the mess. 🤣

    Shadrach's Ex Battery and Rescued chickens thread.

    Thanks for explaining. I just have been reading a Dutch article on the same subject. Very strange. It doesn’t make sense how the different countries try to coop with Ai and don’t cooperate in achieving solutions.

    Shadrach's Ex Battery and Rescued chickens thread.

    Yes, I had seen this publication before. Have been reading the intro, and I thought it was inaccurate bc it says poultry in the EU is vaccinated. But these are only pilots. Didn’t read the rest of it.

    Caturday! A neighbour cat in the chickens dust bath. This dust basth area is underneath an old window. A dry spot in the run filled up with sand and a little DE every now and then.

    No, for my own safety. Our traffic is too crowded to get somewhere sooner if you annoy slow drivers anyway. And besides: Tailgating fines: from €380, up to €900 (depending on distance and speed)

    It doesn’t happen often. Our streets and highways are too crowded for such stupidities. Speed controls and other mistakes/ misbehaviour on the road are not a joke here in the Netherlands. We have the highest fines for traffic mistakes and speeding in Europe. Tailgating: from €380, up to €900...

    A very small Swiss knife when I’m out on a hike or whenever I take my small ruck sack with me on a (bike) trip.

    Sort of lost, never for a really very long time while hiking. 🥾 Lost a track many times. Never had to stay overnight on a mountain. Sometimes my bike or my car got lost for a long time bc I forgot (the way back to) where I parked the vehicle. Nowadays a cellphone makes it almost impossible...

    My son made miniature chickens for fun. Egg cups for small bantam eggs, and a replica of a sliding door guide that had broken on request.
