    Sending greetings from new member in Costa Rica

    I am not familiar with that area but most places in Costa Rica have no problem with folks having chickens. I live near San Ramon which is a fair size city and know folks there have chickens. Around where I live, Los Angles Sur, there are chickens everywhere. You see them along side the road...

    There are several types of Bantam hens here in Costa Rica including Silkies which are good layers as well as mamas. You just have to ask around in your area or check at the local feed stores and sometimes the vets have chickens/bantams. We no longer have chickens, too many with too many chores.

    Fermenting Feed for Meat Birds

    I have a silkie roo and two hens. They all can range in our backyard, there is no problem keeping them nice and clean as the yard has some kind of ground cover plant that keeps them out of the mud.
