    Going to have to Cull One of my RIR's

    Poor Baby! I don't blame you for wanting to put her out of her misery. What is your rooster to hen ratio? Are all of your chickens RIRs?

    Total bummmerrr, total egg bummer, Egg free life =(

    Several weeks ago my daughter who has had bad allergies for years finally got tested to see what exactly she was allergic to. They tried the pain free scratch test but it didn't work too well, and they had to draw blood. My poor daughter was stuck 5 times before they got any, but she got a lolly...

    Should I COOK her? Need your thoughts.......

    God may have put Rhodee here to teach you patience, or maybe to provide you with a nice Sunday dinner! I have only culled one of my chickens- I raised him from a day old chick. He was very mean to people and very rough with the hens- even then I had a hard time killing him.

    Thinking of expaning the flock

    Buckeyedave, how many hens are you parting with? I will be in Columbus Nov. 1-2, and may be interested. Is Minster anywhere near there? How much do you want for them?

    Pop door questions?

    Where do you live? If its really cold there, you may want a smaller door for the chickens to keep it a bit warmer in the coop. I don't have a pop door yet, but hopefully will before the snow.
