    Hens for Sale

    I am trying to rehome my flock as I am buying a new house and cannot take them with me. I would really like to see them gone ASAP as I will be traveling in a couple weeks and it would be much easier to not have to make arrangements for their care. In addition, the situation is upsetting for me...

    butchering for Thanksgiving

    How long can I keep my turkeys in the fridge before Thanksgiving? I really want to enjoy a fresh turkey so I didn't want to freeze them. Or, if I butcher them now or early November and put in freezer are they still fresh? They free range daily. My broad breasted white is huge now. My midget...

    A-frame frame angle

    Hello! My husband is building me an A-frame chicken tractor (no wheels). He has the bottom frame done, but is having a hard time figuring out the angle for the boards to meet at the top (the apex). If you could help me out with this I would greatly appreciate it! Thank you.

    My ducks won't eat treats?!

    They did eat the peas I gave them...thanks for the suggestion! I will have to pick up some romaine for them from the store next time I go. Has anyone tried feeder goldfish in their "ponds" for their ducks?

    My ducks won't eat treats?!

    My ducklings, which are almost 8 weeks now won't eat any special treats I make up for them? I make them a nice plate of scrambled eggs, cottage cheese, and oranges and they don't touch it...I throw in some watermelon and they don't eat that either. Anyone else experience this? I am used to my...
