    Possum problem

    You’re welcome! Opossums are very misunderstood :) If you have a garden and a bunch of snails or slugs around, they will gladly eat those pests so it is helpful to have them around!

    Possum problem

    As long as the opossum cannot get into your coop or run, you are fine. They will mostly go after your eggs before ever trying to get your chickens. Just have a secure coop you can close your girls in at night and have a secure run as well. Opossums are way less dangerous for your birds than a...

    Sand smell?

    Since it seems to be a plant based product, you could just let it decompose and add more on top once it breaks down a bit!

    Lets see your Labubus

    I hate them due to the insane resellers and such. I managed to get my hands on one (the popmart vending machine was being refilled and I managed to be first in line) and honestly, the worst 30 bucks I have spent on something. Coulda bought a bag of feed that would last me a month and a half. Oh...

    Sand smell?

    Just leave it until it dries to a bone dry, then it doesn’t smell.

    Sand smell?

    Sadly sand tends to stink if it doesnt have good enough water drainage. All that poo would get stuck at the bottom and marinate in the water then smell horribly when disturbed. You can’t really do much except wait for the sand to dry out, then it will stop smelling.

    What do you keep in your dual purpose chicken First-Aid kit?

    I would highly suggest stocking up on dewormer (egg withdrawal no matter what) and either elector psp (no egg withdrawal but expensive) or permethrin (longer egg withdrawal but cheaper). Egg withdrawal is meaning a time where humans should not consume their eggs. Whist it is chemicals, there is...

    Rural King Bantam Bin Chick Identification!

    Clean legs and beards make me think banty EEs. I dont know of any other bearded bantams other than barbu de watermael or however you spell their name.

    show quality

    Congrats! Sometimes the classes are small so there is a larger chance to be able to win. Hatcheries aren't known for their incredible quality but there are some decent birds that can pop up once and a while. I had a decent wyandotte a few years back that was a hatchery bird. Never shower her but...

    Meyers mystery breed/gender

    It could be opal possibly but a very washed out one 🤷‍♀️ Its feathers do look to have that shredder gene somehwere. They still could be the frost white legbars as frost whites aren’t exactly a true breed and more of a mix of a mix. Here are some images of my opal legbars when they were pullets...

    Meyers mystery breed/gender

    They all seem to be frost white legbars. Opal legbars are more purpley. Well, 2 may be a white rock but I am unsure. They all look to be pullets. You got lucky! They should be spunky and personable birds. I miss my legbars haha. Whoops, 1 just loaded in for me. Legbar based easter egger

    Need ideas on transporting ten chickens on short notice

    Any large cardboard boxes can also work perfectly. I have seen people also use random plastic boxes with holes in it. Honestly, anything that they can breathe in and fit in somewhat comfortably will work in a rush. Your temporary hen setup at your parents’ sounds actually really good. Make sure...

    Sexing cream legbars- they all look alike to me

    Thats absolutely horrible! I an so glad you guys were safe and some of the babies made it out :hugs These guys could be pure legbar however I would not personally breed them due to the not distinct patterning as a chick. Plus one has no crest whatsoever. Still very cute girls and hopefully you...
