    Am I right to feel ripped off with this chicken supplies business?

    The label says the package is 2lbs. 4oz. I looked on usps.com to see what it would cost to ship that from the States to Aus. USPS quoted me $23.95 postage based on that weight, no insurance or postal "extras" so I don't know what else to tell you. I hope you can get it squared away though. I'd...

    Am I right to feel ripped off with this chicken supplies business?

    The postage on the package should have been $23.95 according to USPS.com. It does look like the $11.75 was extra postage added after the label was printed. They probably under paid when printing the label on their PC. Hope that helps you some? A $36 "handling fee" seems a bit steep to me for...

    Growing fodder for chickens

    My first go at sprouting fodder. Soaked it Sunday and put in the bins Monday morning. This was taken just now. Seems like it is going to work out well. Time to move ahead with a rack set up.

    If you are trying to sell I'd say post it to craigslist. I'm sure you can send PMs to folks in the BST area with stuff you are interested in buying. Just a thought. Best of luck! Keep posting and you'll have the 20 in no time. I have been here just a few weeks and got over that hump without even...

    Organic or not?

    Do a google search for "organic chicken feed chicago". You might be suprised what you find, there are a lot of sources closer than 40 miles from you. Good luck, and have fun!

    It's not hard at all. I use a free program called photoscape. I'd be glad to go over it with you.

    It was very cool to get a chance to meet so many of you this morning at TPB. Thanks for making me feel so welcomed. I very much enjoyed myself. Anyone rigged up a coop cam? I'm a bit of an IT geek and so It's been on my mind lately.

    I have been meaning to post this for a couple of days now. Update on my run. It does look a little patch-worky, that was my way of experimentng with different ways of making the run modular. This is the first half of their enclosed run, I'll be adding another similar enclosure to the far side of...

    That might be because she knew I was keen on Sunday? If we could do it sometime between 11 and 4 it would be awesome the Farmers Market is running there. I love to have a look at what's there.
