    Looking to trade 3-4 roos Upstate NY

    Hi Lisa! I would love to arrange a trade. What questions do you have about the roosters and what hens do you have to trade? Since we are about 4 hours away from each other, would you be willing to meet halfway if we decide to go ahead with a trade? I hope you are enjoying the break in the...

    Ducks that lay colored eggs?

    Dog marking

    I would agree that your pup probably has some deeply ingrained habits...that said, with some consistent training, you will be able to make progress with him. Having him altered will definitely make a difference, the rest is up to you to teach him proper behavior for living in the house. You...
