I went to lock my hen coop up and saw two young roosters perch up with them. The third youngest one is still sleeping outside in another open coop. I must separate them tonight or something bad will happen. The young roosters are sex crazy.......... :wee -

The hormones in my 3 young roosters have peaked and they are now tag teaming all the mean hens 3 on one. I will lock the hens in tonight without the roosters to keep them from dying. I will keep the molting hens locked up until they start laying again and then I will let my white and brown... -

My 3 young roosters all have different crow sounds. One is normal and matches the loud irritating sound of other roosters in my neighborhood. He will probably be the first to go.

My hens started molting and have stopped laying eggs, so I stir fried bolted lettuce leaves and lunch and meat for breakfast. And I found that the lettuce can replace the egg in my opinion. -

I received my Smart Wonder Core from amazon today and I did a little of all the exercises in the picture except for scissor kicks. I did enough of each exercise to feel a little burn in my muscles. Later in the day, I took a nap and never slept like this in a long time. In conclusion, the... -

One year I raised together from chicks a Jersey Giant rooster, a Leghorn rooster, a Buff Orpington rooster and an Australorp rooster.

The hormones in my 3 baby roosters have kicked in. I saw one of four old hens being chased and mounted today, while the other three old hens barraged my baby rooster and kicked him off her. I kind of feel sorry for the old hens who kicked him off, because Roosters get crazy when they are fully... -

The 18v LXT batteries that I got from Ebay for my old Makita drills didn't fit, so I ordered a charger and Makita air pump that uses that type of battery. I got the Makita air pump today and tried it on my Rubicon Jeep tires. I set it at 33 psi and topped off 4 tires. It's the best portable air... -

I have been lightly stir frying my lettuce with thin slices of roasted/ marinated pork. I notice that I eat more lettuce this way because they shrink after flash frying. It's a good way to use up the lettuce that start to bolt. -

I am happy to report that my feet biting spoiled male chicks are not man eaters. I used to hold them once a day while they were chicks and stopped after I took them outside. Whenever I went outside, they would run up to me and bite my feet to let me know that they were hungry. I corrected that...
