I juiced some beets and carrots one time, and fed the flesh to the chickens. Their yolks came out a beautiful dark pink/yellow color. Sort of like a tequila sunrise. :)
I just got three ducks, but am not crazy about duck eggs. I only use them for baking, and I mix one duck with two chicken for scrambled eggs. The whites are too grainy for me.
I have three Pekin ducks. I have never seen any other breeds available for purchase, but these will do fine. I had three of these in my last round. :). They are very sweet.
Hi, I am a 6 year returning member, after being chicken-free for two years. The current food insecurity issues have prompted me to re-start my flock. I am in Tampa, on a heavily treed lot, where the weather and shade makes raising chickens pretty easy. We do have raccoon and possum predators...
Me too! Totally obsessed with getting more chicks! I think we are getting a mini pig...not that mini...in Feb. what is we? I want some Rhode Island Red and some fancier ones. My daughter wants one in the pic I hope to attach, but I'm thinking more than one rooster may be too many, lol.
