    Can you "carry on" chicken eggs?

    Like it's been said "I'd check with TSA". It doesn't appear as though you'd have a problem as I didn't see any eggs on the list myself. That being said, I'd say "Go for it" Remember to quote me though if you're tasered on video for news so I can get my 15 minutes of fame. "RevaVirginia said...

    giant rock-packed crop

    I'm sure a great answer is coming. As for now though, I believe that you not allowing access to pebbles by keeping her from free ranging sounds like a good intervention. Good luck

    Why are my chicks not growing?

    I want to encourage breeders to become N.P.I.P. certified.

    I'm with you on this one. Knowledge is power. All factual education is good for society. Just being able to pass the certification everyone benefits. That said. Discerning fact from fiction or what otherwise would be thought of as a "No Brainer" can be tricky. Take a gander at a documentary...

    Feed for a rooster?

    I often wonder this myself. It seems to me that all feeding concerns are directed towards the hens. As my chickens go about their daily routine the Roos find food and call the hens over and let them dine on what they found. I'm sure they're getting enough to eat because they are huge. I just...

    Hydrometer

    Careful with the use of device nomenclatures. This thread is a mess with "Hydrometer" "Hygrometer" "Hydrameter"(?). Hydrometers are used to measure specific gravity.
