    Keeping The Best, Culling The Rest

    This is good to know. We rescue dogs but will never rescue chickens. I like the closed flock idea. Our flock is all new as we have only lived in this place for 2 years. I fuss about everything though, worrying if they're happy, if any diseases are lying in wait. And predators. Always...

    Love it. I'm in that same situation right now with young chickens who may or may not go into the coop when they're supposed to.

    Keeping The Best, Culling The Rest

    Think I'm gonna copy and save some of this for future reference as sort of a motivational thing. Too often I get attached to one sweet bird or another but the need is for eggs and meat, some breeding. Keeping pet chickens is not affordable for us at this point in our lives. (Of course I say...
