    Just getting started and I think I want Welsh Harlequins

    I'm in Vermont to abd have been considering ducks. I have a beaver pond about 100 yards from my house. Could that work as a water source for them? I'm sui exited to see that they are thriving with you. It's been so cold already this winter.

    Yes I think dual purpose breeds are what I am going to get. I am concerned about predators here. That is for sure. The neighbors dogs like to wander over here. I am unsure if I will have to worry about them but I am out in the middle of nowhere too so there is predatory wildlife also. I do know...

    I'll have to look into what I need to raise the chicks. I can't imagine they would do well outside here. Today it is a toasty 0*F outside. I don't have a heated barn or basement.

    Hi from the NEK VT

    I am not really sure what I'm looking for. I'll have to do more research on breeds before I decide. Thank You

    HI everyone, (insert awkward wave) I can't wait to start my chicken mamma life style. Could any of you locals suggest a place to get heritage breed chicks?

    I've moved to my homestead in October. I have 5 awesome children an amazing husband and 8 pigs! I would love to let the kids hatch chicks around easter time to raise our flock. I have never had chickens or cared for them. I can't wait to dip my toes in you fountain of knowledge :) I would love...
