looking for local eggs about 3 dozen a week. Modoc is just outside Augusta GA. My wife can pick up

Hi it's been a while since I have posted and due to some unfortunate circumstances I have had to sell all I of my birds and move. I still have a taste for home grown eggs however. Is there anyone around Modoc SC that would be able to supply my family with about 3 dozen eggs a week? Name...

X2 on wiring down the can. I have had to do that

Quote: He comes back? Humm. Do rabbits have that instinct like chickens? My birds dissapear but come back at dusk. Could I "free range" him? Just a thought

Its all I had on the fly... I plan to fix it better. Welded wire perhaps??

BTW he loves chicken feed... I hope it wont hurt him. And my girls love to drink from his fount waterer.

Yeah Thumper the rabbit is cool. I can't get the pic upload thingy to work right on my driod but as soon ask can get to my PC I will post a pic of him. He is grayish silver and is huge and still growing. I would say he weighs about 10 pounds. And I have heard that they get up to 15 or 20. I...

I was taught and use a shot glass per gal.

Quote: I have two BCMs and one egg so far and she was a late bloomer. I got them memorial day and the breeder said they were 14 weeks then so that's like 29 weeks I think. It seemed like forever. Can't wait to check after work today for another chocolate egg.

Its been over 90 during the day for the past three months with a few 110+ days. But now I feel a coolness comming on. Any one else feel fall coming closer?

Quote: My. Roo is a Buff Orp. And I also have a mixed roo (RIR and BO I think). If your roo is a BCM I know he must be beautiful. In my opinion BCM roos and dark leghorn roos are among the prettiest out there
