Cookie tin heaters are great. Just made one right before the weather turned bad(high of 16degrees today) very unusual for OK,. They word great. No ice!!

Here in Oklahoma(near OKC) we get about2.50 to 3.00 depending on the season. Free range organic bring 3.50 or more.

I guess I don't understand why we continue to breed animals with this birth defect. We should be culling those who exhibit this tendency. Any reputable breeder would not continue to mate birds that exhibit the tendency to have offspring with this trait. It is just common sense to allow nature...

How soon would you suggest feeding grass or sprouts to baby chicks. How about grit for babies. I have some really small grit labeled chick starter grit. How early is too early

I wanted to know if you can leave a hen sitting on eggs in a nest with other hens in the coop. I have a silkie that is broody and wanted to just let her sit on those eggs. Will she stay in the same nest box? do I move her back to the same eggs if she moves?:

I have found my chickens love sprouted wheat, and oats. It also gives them some great green stuff in the winter.
