    Allergen free feeding

    Same here. Cold snowy winters so foraging will be limited even with a covered or partially covered run, I will still need to be able to supply them with sufficient food for, at minimum, 3 months.

    Allergen free feeding

    I am reading up and weighing my options. This is going to be something that I want to be prepared for to the best of my ability because this is what I want. I don't want it to become my husbands chore if you know what I mean. This is all mine. :)

    Allergen free feeding

    If it turns out that she is selling something, then I guess it will be my option to buy or not. After all, that's the majority of the internet. People selling whether little people or corporations.

    Allergen free feeding

    Quote: "hopecentric" I read her ramblings, but I'm not impressed, since she's never really said anything USEFUL as to what she feeds her chickens. It's mostly a lot of anti GMO rhetoric My impression is she's a Yuppie who likes to listen to herself talk, and I bet before it's over she tries...

    Allergen free feeding

    I just wanted to let all those concerned that I have found a site pertaining to grain free feeding. Due to allergies, I have been looking for a method of feeding corn, soy and gluten free. I don't have my chickens yet but have been researching for a couple of years and will FINALLY be getting my...

    Jersey Giants thread for pictures and discussion

    Hello everyone. I've been in the "planning stages" for 2 years now. I didn't want to "jump" into something on a whim so I've taken my time because I want to do this "as close to right " as possible. Lol I'm glad I waited though because we moved this summer and now I have a much smaller area to...

    Very disapointed:(

    Well I had my very first chicks ordered from Meyer Hatchery, twice. I guess it's a sign that I really should wait for spring. When I first placed my order online I recieved an email that they had my payment but no record of what I ordered. So I called them and she corrected my order because...

    The Chicken Plucker?

    Thank you all for the replies. I say "future", because I'm just getting started with chickens and wondering ahead of time the problems that may arise because we have both coyotes and fishers around. Unfortunately though, I really don't forsee my husband welcoming a llama, or an alpaca. But...

    The Chicken Plucker?

    After reading everyones thoughts of having a "guard Llama", it has me wondering, are Alpaca just as efficient at guarding against predators? It's got me thinking for future options. :/

    Nipple waterers

    I definitely plan to give them a try. I showed them to my husband and he really seemed to like the idea too. :)

    I Caponized! ***Graphic Pics*** Not For Faint of Heart.

    I would think if/when I choose to butcher my own, that would be a good time to look at the insides to learn about the ovary and testical placement. Don't get me wrong, I understand the concept behind the whole thing, but rather than experimenting on youngens, just practice on the ones that will...

    Haven't read up on broilers. Why do you restrict their food?

    How long?

    I'm just wondering, how long, on average do hens lay eggs in they're lifetime? Assuming they live a full life.

    Corn and Soy free......?

    Thank you very much. I'm going to check that out as soon as I post this. Not sure about the delivery yet as I'm sure it would probably cost me more than $6 for shipment but I'm definitely going to look into it. Thank you again.
