    What Dog Breed Should I Get?

    I think a Standard Poodle would be a good option for you, after reading through the thread. There have really been some astonishingly bad suggestions here though. One thing I will say is that it seems like your current dog is "iffy" with other dogs. I would really encourage you to not leave...

    anyone making a video etc of how to get a chicken on its back?

    My chickens don't put up a fuss about being on their backs. I can pick them up and turn them over in one arm, or if I need both hands just lie them on my lap. They just chill out.

    Does my turkey have bumblefoot?

    I would soak the foot for 15-20 minutes in Epsom salt water. To get all the dirt and such off. I could not see a bumblefoot scab on my girl until I did this! Did surgery and she was fine. :)

    Are buff orps good layers??

    My Buff Orp lays pretty much every day. Slowing down a bit for winter, but over the summer she was laying about 8 or 9 days in a row before taking a day off.

    Feeding aquarium culls to chickens?

    Clove oil is the best way to euthanize fish. It puts them to sleep instantly and then they slowly pass after that. Can't imagine the amount of clove oil needed to euthanize a platy would harm a chicken.

    high protein foods for molting?

    I grind chicken along with other meats to feed to my dogs, and every time I make food for them I set aside portions for my chickens. Don't skin anything either, or remove organs. All I remove is fur/feathers and intestines. All those innards are natural for them to eat!

    Tricide Neo for Bumblefoot- Still recommended?

    I haven't done Tricide Neo soaks, but I've had one hen with bumblefoot I did 20 minute Epsom salt soaks with. She sits quietly the entire time. I also had a pullet rip off a toenail, and she is VERY skittish and hard to handle. I expected her to be a nightmare in the soak. Instead she settled...

    Controling flies

    I can't stand the stench of the fly traps! I started covering poops in the run with DE and then pine shavings. Doing this weekly DRASTICALLY reduced my number of flies!

    FERMENTED FEEDS...anyone using them?

    I'd have to give them a double serving to cover their morning and evening amounts, and there's no way they could eat all that in one go. At least not without exploding their crops. If it's cold enough I'd also worry about the feed freezing since it's wet and they couldn't eat it all. :(

    the BEST guard dog breed!

    I'm not sure why you're being so argumentative. I've worked with dogs for 10 years, I have plenty of experience with both breeds. Corgis aren't fighters, a raccoon OR a fox that decided to stand and fight would have no real trouble with a Corgi. The only reason I even mentioned Anatolians is...

    FERMENTED FEEDS...anyone using them?

    Okay, maybe a silly question! I feed twice a day since I do FF. But pretty soon, it'll start getting dark before I get home from work. What do you all do in these situations?

    the BEST guard dog breed!

    A proper Corgi is only about 25-30lbs max. Anything larger is poorly bred, mixed, or obese. Just because a fox mostly will choose to run doesn't mean it wouldn't tear up a Corgi if it decided to stay and fight. That's the catch- you have to have a dog for all scenarios. What's the use of having...

    the BEST guard dog breed!

    Worked with dogs for over a decade here. I am well aware of the size of a Corgi. And a Corgi absolutely can (and likely will) get torn apart by a fox, and will be slaughtered by a coyote. Your JRT mix scaring off your neighbor's Pit Bull was a fluke, and he got lucky. If the larger dog had...

    DOG PROBLEMS!! HELP

    The problem with Cesar is that his methods involve forcing dogs into shutdown mode, kicking dogs, and generally mentally and physically abuse them. For example, that video of him getting nailed by Holly the Lab, the dog is showing SO MANY signals of "I don't want to bite you but please leave my...

    Is this really a Scottish Terrier?

    Scotties do come in a wheaten color variety, but her facial structure doesn't look quite right to me. Looks more Westie. Hard to say as pups though!
