    Newcomer to Fallbrook, CA and to Chickens

    Hi!! I'm in Fallbrook as well! Be sure you ponder ground squirrels, they are in my coops all the time eating the food and the eggs. Someone mentioned hawks, you mentioned coyotes, then there are bobcats as well.

    We buy in Temecula and Fallbrook. The other day my husband went into Dan's Feed and asked about buying a pallet of something, they told him to talk to the guy in the office, but didn't bother mentioning where the office was. He figured it out. When he asked the guy in the office about a...

    Hi All, I've been hatching and breeding like crazy. I can't tell you why... because I like chicks I suppose. Anyhow, I have Buckeyes, Delawares and Olive Eggers if anyone is looking. I also have been buying by the pallet for Modesto if anyone is looking for Organic, corn/soy free lay...

    My Welsh Harlequins came from Holderread last week. I ordered them last year. I had almost forgot about them!! I love ducklings, but my ducks aren't very calm!

    Hi Deb, I'm not telling you what to do, I have my dogs on the property with me. But, a lot of people leave livestock guardian dogs out with livestock for days on end. When they have herds of goats they travel with the goats. My dogs keep everything away (they did tree a bobcat once, that...

    I think humans, chickens, dogs, goats, just about every animal I've ever encountered like to find a weak one and bully it. REally go to any schoolyard or office and you will see what I mean. We prey on the weak!

    Anyone have Khaki Campbell drakes that are close to or adults? There's a post on Craigslist, I've written twice but can't get a response, so I'm looking elsewhere.

    I have squirrels eating my eggs too, they don't take them out of the nest, but they eat any that are on the ground.

    I'm a bit confused, how warm is it? I leave my eggs out all the time, for a long time and they don't develop, it's just not that hot!

    Livestock guardian dogs

    I think some of it depends on the breed, but plenty depends on the dog and training. You are going to have a fence, right? Well, that keeps the dog from biting everyone and going anywhere. My dogs bark and look scary if anyone comes to my house, but they won't bite, they are actually pretty...

    So now I've decided I want to add Mottled Java's to my line up. Anyone have any? I'd be happy with anything from eggs to a year old. Also need an Australorp rooster as mine was attacked and poisoned by something, couldn't tell you what, but found the puncture holes in his wattles after he...
