    Also they have a supply of oyster shells and their old egg shells mixed with it.

    The great yolk color debate

    I use the nutrena all flock 20% pellets mixed with this manna pro stuff at 4:1 . They free range most of the day. 10 birds, get 2 cups of scratch a day as treat. Use one of those metal mesh tea bag balls to make their water. I put oregano, basil, cayenne pepper, cinnamon, thyme and rosemary...

    2-3$ is all ive ever seen them go for a dozen. If you raise your price to much you may end up sitting on a bunch of eggs.

    Help, my pullet got scalped by her siblings

    Please don't put super glue on a wound that large... it's safe to use on cuts but not large gashes. I use it on myself for cuts, but one thing most people don't know is it doesn't store well. A year after the production date it's junk. You can prolong its life a little in the freezer but...

    Hen or rooster and if hen something not right??

    Spurs take a long time to develop. Mine are 6-7 months old and no spurs yet. They are forming but just look like bumps yet.

    Glad you got that fox but sorry you lost a chicken. Im pretty protective of my critters too, came outside one day and saw a "stray" dragging my favorite chicken across the driveway, took me all of 2 seconds... chicken luckily was uninjured except some missing feathers. I'm still kinda miffed...

    Also that "newskin" stuff burns like fire and you'll have one heck of a time getting it out of the feathers as the only thing that removes it is more of it or acetone based finger nail polish remover. It doesn't work in large wounds anyway. It's really only for small cuts.

    Don't use hydrogen peroxide on a wound like that. You'll just kill additional skin cells with it. A better thing to use would be Vetericyn spray. They have a poultry specific bottle but the ingredients are the exact same as the dog version. I had a banty rooster that was scalped almost as...

    Wanted- white/silver laced Wyandotte BANTAM hatching eggs or pullets

    No longer looking. Got a great deal yesterday. A fella traded me all of his white laced wyandottes for 4 little dominique peeps i got on clearance at TSC. He didn't like them because they go broody to much and he wants eggs not peeps. PERFECT! I was in desperate need of a broody hen, none of...

    For trade

    That's a cutie, wish i could... also didn't realize how attached i got to sir peeps until he was gone, wife and i really miss his "conversations". It's odd to walk outside and not get greeted by him anymore.
