    Questions about raising chicks

    Thank you for your responses. She will become broody in one of the nest boxes. Do you think that if I move her and the clutch of eggs to a different/protected location she will stay sitting on them?

    Questions about raising chicks

    My old rooster

Now he is starting to slow down and I know he is getting old. My question is, is there anything I can do to boost his energy level and...
