    What's the secret on how to deal with weeds in the garden? Can't seem to keep them under control.

    What type of cover? The winters in Utah get pretty severe(however, not in the last couple years) so it will need something that can be grown in the next month- month and a half. I was also wondering. Is it bad to plant peppers next to tomatos? The reason I ask and perhaps you know is that I...

Cooked it in butter, fresh squeezed lime, pepper, garlic, diced basil and a bit of chicken rub. Said it fell off the bone. He then took the juice, the bones and the skin and...

    Been growing my garden for several months now. NOT A SINGLE WEED!!! I love these raised garden boxes. I think what Ill do is wait till the end of season and then put a lid on the top. Then Ill throw my scraps in there for the next 6 months while its winter and see what kind of compost I have by...

    Processing meat birds in Niagara, Ontario?

    Ask the local meat processor in your grocery store if they would do them. You can try just going to a farm and seeing if you can get someone to do yours when they do theirs. I have a local guy here that does mine but charges me 5 bucks a bird. Not really worth it in my opinion but until I find a...

    The adventure begins

    Mine got so fat they couldt walk very well. Theyd walk a couple feet and lay down, get up, walk a couple feet then lay down. They would lay at the feed dish and just eat non stop without ever even getting up.

    raising cornish chickens

    I buy the feed for meat birds at the local farm store that is 24% protein and let them eat all day, every day.

    raising cornish chickens

    Mine didnt either. They wouldnt eat bugs or worms. Just feed 24/7. The chickens need to be 8 lbs to get a dressed weight of what your asking.They dress out at about 25-35% of live weight.

    raising cornish chickens

    Had the same problem with mine. What are you feeding them and how often? I took mine in at about 7 weeks or so and the butcher said they were to small. Mine were 2.5 lbs live weight at this time. I changed them to a high protein chicken feed 24/7. At 11 weeks I had them butchered and all...

    The adventure begins

    I had just landscaped my yard and there was no place for a coop that wasnt brand new grass and sprinklers and such. I put the coop up on my big patio but I didnt want them to be on straight concrete so I built a box that is 4 inches high and a little longer and wider than the coop which my coop...
