    Hi. We recently lost Cutie. Now we have ONE lonely Silkie hen. We are going o get 2 chicks today to keep her company. question One: Do I need to wait the 30 days for germs, etc? Question Two: Can I introduce the chicks to the silkie or must it be 6-8 weeks? Thanks for your support. R

    Spring molt?

    Hi. I am no expert, but I just went through this. My hen began her molt in late March. MARCH!

    My garden veggies taste yucky.

    Hi all you lovely folks. Today I harvested beets and carrots from the backyard. I made a salad, but to be honest...they weren't very good. They didn't have a lot of flavor. I was wondering, what can I do to grow carrots that taste sweeter and beets that taste better. Thanks in advance.

    I went to the feed store today. NO BABY CHICKS were there. no birds at all. i was happy to see that they are taking a great stand to stop the spread. it made me feel confident. Good job. Are you finding that at other feed stores in the quarantined areas?
