    There are a lot of cattle ranchers our here in the plains but you can't have very many per acre. Goats are becoming very popular apparently as I see them on a lot of properties now. The bad things is those properties are now pretty barren due to the over grazing. People need to be more...

    Colorado

    Yoder is about 30 miles east of Colorado Springs out on the plains. It's not really a town as most people know the word, but rather is a post office and a community! I have about 50 chickens which is down from what I have had in the past. I have 4 turkeys and a few pheasant. We live on 40...

    Feeding Question

    I also feed layer crumbles. I also feed scratch mixed in with the crumbles to get a good dark yellow yolk. With the crumbles by themselves the yolks just aren't as rich looking.

    Suggestions for 'homemade" nesting boxes

    Hi, I also use kitty litter boxes that have covers. My girls like them over the wooden nest boxes and the majority of eggs layed are in the litter boxes. They are easy to clean, they don't habor parasites and they are light weight. They do come in different sizes too.
