    Not sure exactly where to post this, but does anyone know when or if TSC in Bangor Maine or TSC in Skowhegan Maine is having a chicken swap in 2014? Thanks

    I have 2 of them that are 1 years old. Not sure if you're looking for chicks or not, I'm 35 miles from Waterville. Organic fed, and free ranged. $30 takes them.

    Chickens & Lawn Care

    I wouldn't eat the birds or the eggs if my lawn was sprayed. What are they spraying for anyway? The chickens will take care of the bugs AND fertilize it for him.

    Chicken crate plans?

    Does anyone have any plans or pics of chicken crates? I'm thinking about building 2 that will fit in my truck for when I bring the meaties to get processed.

    Use food grade DE for your mite problems. Its safer for them, safer for you, and safer for the planet. And it works great.

    Then what is the medication? I'm going to try my next batch of chicks on non medicated feed and see if its really needed.

    Medicated chick feed

    Just finished reading Harvey Ussery's book and I'm going to follow his ideas. No medicated feed. The chicks will need a higher protein feed than the adults as they are trying to grow , and the adults need layer feed for the eggs.

    Does anyone know if there will be a swap at the Waterville or Bangor TSC's this year?

    Plants that are good for poultry forage and green manure.

    Thought I'd bump this thread from the past. It's getting to be planting time and was wondering if anyone is going to plant stuff for their chickens, and if anyone has had good or bad experiences in the past with some of the post above..

    Freedom Rangers in Georgia - Spring 2012

    How big is your tractor? I'm putting 25 birds into a 8x10 and am wondering if I'll have to move it twice a day.

    What does Valentine's Day mean to you?

    It means I get to watch co-workers stress out and scramble to buy overpriced junk for their loved ones.

    Joel Salatin a Snake Oil sales man?

    You don't sell many books, or get invited many places to speak if what you're writing or saying doesn't work. It obviously works for him. If you don't like it, or it doesn't work for you, thats different.
