    Feeding green stuff??

    I limit my flock on scraps from the kitchen, i do give them peas 2-3 times a week. I do allow them to free-range so they eat grass all the time. they can have as much grass as they want. Free-ranging makes your flock healthier and gives them nice shiny feathers, and makes the eggs dark orange...

    Is it ok to feed pullets gamebird starter?

    I went and bought some RIR pullets yesterday, and the guy told us he had fed them gamebird starter since they were born up to that time. they are about 5 months old now. are they ruined from being fed improper feed? will it hurt their egg laying?

    Will scratch grains hurt my pullets future egg laying?

    I recently bought dark brahmas and speckled Sussex from a woman who solely fed them scratch grains. Would that have hurt them in any way? Will they lay well in the future? They are very pretty and very healthy besides the point. I've got them on grower now.

    Possibly my last post ever on this site (sad news)

    I know what it is like to lose animal friends! I hate selling mine cause they can be so gentle with you! I know a friend who lost 9 chickens due to a neighbor who disliked chickens and he let his dang dog in his chicken lot and he killed all them.

    my Khaki's always lay their eggs in the house, and they're never dirty!

    Many questions about duck eggs!

    now the egg isn't fertile unless you have a drake with them. i would collect all the eggs i could get and hatch them in an incubator so i could keep getting eggs from her, i have found that if you let a duck hatch her own eggs it takes her forever to lay gaian, it took mine 1 1/2 years to start...
