    Tractor Suppy

    We just recently moved from Missouri to West Virginia and Tractor Suppy seems to be the closest to us. However Ive never shopped there before & have no idea what brand of feed I should get for my chickens...... Any help would be great. My chickens (babies) are all a couple years old. I just...

    oppinions needed on a sad and graghic question

    My daughter is 12 and I asked her, if we were in your shoes what should we do? She wouldn't want her friend in pain and would want to be apart of things. However she wouldn't want to see the end (the injection or the burial). She would want to be able to say goodbye in her own way, by preparing...

    Pecking order - how much dominance is too much

    I'm interested too. I'm introducing now myself. I keep the littles ones seperate from the older flock with a fence. Lastnight we moved the fence and let them check each other out. It went pretty good, we only let this go on for about 45 minutes then seperated them again, so all the babies could...

    Is anyone on here South Beaching?

    I'm like that too, sugar & pasta are a craving that won't go away. I must also include BREAD.. They are my top comfort foods. Sometimes I can exercise, sometimes I can't, but with SB I was able to learn to keep track of what I was eating & how much & how often. People that really enjoy food have...

    Is anyone on here South Beaching?

    My husband & I did South Beach a few years ago. I lost 30#. I've been fighting the last 5# for the last few years too, because We stopped the program. The really bad thing is. We both felt better while we were on it. Had more energy and just felt wonderful. We have discussed many times about...

    Can't teach an old Dog New tricks?

    We've have tried this over & over again, she'll wait until we're not looking & go full force again.:o We even caged her for a week. She is very mean. Would'nt stop even after there was blood. Of course we can't have this. I don't want to get rid of her because she is other wise a good girl. But...

    Can't teach an old Dog New tricks?

    Does this include Chickens? We have a hen that was here when we bought the property, she's a good layer, brooder & mommy, but she is mean to any & all new young chics that we introduce to the flock. She really goes bananas! She's about 3 years old and is a Cochin. I'm getting ready to add 11...

    Hi everyone, we're new to BYC. W seen this forum & had to check it out.... So glad we did, because we have a funny story to add. Our goose was acting funny this spring so we followed her around thinking she had a nest of eggs hidden, sure enough she took us to her nest & sat on it. So we ran &...

    went to feed store this a.m. & got the sulmet, We cleaned all water containers & filled with treated water, already seeing a big difference in some chicks that were starting to look weak.
