    $4 is pretty par. I charge $2. Some people have actually gave me more and told me I wasn't charging enough. Lol. On average, it costs me about $0.72 to produce 1 dozen eggs.

    How much trouble is a single comb in winter?

    A mosin nagant will cost you about $100. It shoots a 7.62x54R. Bolt action 5 shot. Big enough for the large game and cheap enough to leave you a budget for a .22lr pistol.

    Sil Go Link Roos

    How big are they at 6mos? I'm guessing they are similar to any other sex link bird, weighing up 8lbs mature and close to 4lbs at 6 months. Just wondering if anyone has experience.

    Something in .223/5.56. If I could only get 1 gun to fit your needs, that's what I'd choose. Even though I prefer the 7.62 round.

    starting to get really ticked off....

    None dead today. I did find poop on the highest roost I set up yesterday, but don't know who did it. Here's what I did today. And cut out more of the wire for a doorway.
