    We've got an egg-eater on our hands...😤

    Absolutely! It has an app and it's free and the recording stays for three days but I also have an SD card in it. I have two cameras and I can move them around wherever I want.

    Actually there are very reasonably priced cameras out there. Got two of them on Amazon. $27.99 each and no AC required because they are charged with a USB cord and I do that about once every 30 days. At least take a look at it and read the comments.

    I did stop using DE but the same type stuff called first Saturday lime, it’s also a powder and it is not harmful to humans or animals. I use it for dusting ants and I Just my girls to prevent lice and mites. Never lost the chicken yet with FIRST SATURDAY lime.

    Comment by 'inkydew' in article 'Do Poultry Mourn Over The Loss Of A Flock Mate?'

    The first time I ever raised chickens, one of them died at about eight years old. So I was left with one, very lonesome Plymouth rock hen. I purchased some 6 week old white Brahmas, thinking that my big girl wouldn’t do much to them and the Brahmas would become 1. 1/2 x larger! There was a...

    Rat Problem

    I have resorted to feeding my chickens inside their enclosed coop in the morning. I have a coop with half inch hard wire that completely encloses the coop which sets 3 feet off the ground. This is the only way to prevent rats from getting in and foraging. I have a big rat problem also but I live...

    TSC Sells Ships Chicks?!? Hoover's Hatchery (dropships)

    I read a great article here on this site and a video showing how to sex checks and also pullets and Cockrell. I am sorry but I cannot remember who it was except that she was female! LOL! I then tested my knowledge on some “pullets that my neighbor purchased at TSC. They were eight weeks old...
