    You all sure have some nice meals, wish my family would eat something that didn't come out of a box. Last night I baked up some catfish. I sure thought it was good but they didn't, needless to say my chickens got some leftover catfish this morning for breakfast. Boy did they enjoy that.

    I have a question. I came home from work this morning and one of my hens is acting strange. She just wants to sit on the ground, usually when I get home I let them out of the run for a while and it is a stampede, but this morning the two came running out but she just wanted to sit. I picked her...

    Happy mother's day everyone. Just talked to my brother, he has eggs incubating, which I get to pick some chicks. They are from bard rock hens and an austalope rooster. Any thoughts or experience with that combination?
