    Not very hard at all... I applied a Safer Stripper (CitriStrip) first which worked really well. It’s messy stuff but very effective. Then I used Sharpie oil based paint markers for the design layer. It was a pretty fun/gratifying project.

    Hi all... this is a reverse painting (painting on the back of glass) that I did for my coop. I started by scrapping off the mirror backing and drew the design using enamel markers. I added a bit of latex paint color for pop... then painted white over the image for the final layer... she’s a...

    Chickens for Backyard Hatchery

    Fingers crossed for you 🤞🏻 And totally huge feet on the JGs... male and female... but the rooster was noticeably bigger. I agree that posting pictures on the “what is this gender” thread (can’t remember the official name) will help... there are gurus who are quite excellent at identifying...

    Chickens for Backyard Hatchery

    Hello! My JG pullets are WONDERFUL! Healthy, lovely birds. I had one rooster in the mix... that I had to give away as he grew so huge and sexually matured earlier than the pullets. He was doing physical (leg injuries from being squished) and emotional harm to the girls... from a human standpoint...

    Pullet egg fused/melded
