    Roof for run

    A ridge pole is the answer I'm looking for. So if I have cross 2x4's every 4 foot, how would you install a ridge pole and what material would you use?

    Roof for run

    I need some advice on putting a tarp over my run for this winter. We do not get heavy snows where I'm at, may be 3 or 4 inches ever couple of years. I currently have a 8 x 16 run. I need advice on what to put up to slant the tarp to shed rain. Very old picture of when I first built my chicken...

    Processed for the 1st time

    If you don't open the bottom how do you get the poop and guts out? I really have never cooked a bird with the internal organs still inside? Is that even safe? ETA: I'm soaking them because that's what I read to do on this site?

    Processed for the 1st time

    I processed 2 20 week old roosters for the 1st time on Sunday. My husband "culled" the roosters, I plucked all the feathers, he cut the bottom opening and removed the insides. I washed them really good and removed some pin feathers. I put them in a big pot covered in salt water and I guess I...

    That is more cute than a bugs ear. What a wonderful idea.

    Need help choosing a MP3 Player for teenager

    Well as bad as their situation seems to be, they do have a computer and the internet. That's why my daughter like to go over there. BUT her disability can make her an unwelcome guest really fast. I think they spent 2 days there and my DD "had" to come home. Yep, I knew the reason. That's why God...

    Need help choosing a MP3 Player for teenager

    Okay story.... My 18 yo DD has an iPod (3 years old) and wants the new iPod Touch (which I've bought already). She made the comment the other day that if she got the new iPod she wanted to give her friend the old one. Well I paid almost $300 for that iPod and I want if for myself, which I told...

    Can Pigeons Use Nipple Waterers?

    I have 5 pigeons that are arriving on Friday next week. I have a 8 x 16 aviary and 4 x 3 coop. I don't know where to buy pigeon supplies, but was wondering if they could use the avian nipple waterers? I do have a chicken type waterer if they can't. Thanks a lot!! Melissa

    What in the world??? I thought they were professional horse trainers!!

    I really liked this thread. I watch lots of horse training videos. I wanted to train my mule. My husband trained his horse and did a good job at it. I thought (silly me) I could watch videos and my husband would help me train my mule. So when she was 3 my husband put a blanket on her and had her...

    Old rabbit hutch as a coop for Silkies (pics) What do you think?

    For a few weeks you'll have to train them. They'll finally get it. It took mine about 2 months though.

    Old rabbit hutch as a coop for Silkies (pics) What do you think?

    Looks good, but take one end and cover with wood on three sides to provide them with a wind block (and floor). You could make a pop door (may be has an access door already) and put a ramp for ground access. BUT don't expect them to use the ramp to go back up at first. Make the ramp wide, wider...
