    Anyone interested in a Swap in Eastern North Carolina?

    I was wondering if anyone would be interested in a poultry or whatever swap in Eastern North Carolina. Washington or Greenville would be great. We have a TSC in both places and Agri Supply is also a good location in Greenville. I have seen a lot of people from around this area on BYC and just...

    When our chickens get old

    Thank you for sharing that story. There are quite a few of us - who are carnivores with dear, pet chickens - that might benefit from this perspective. I could not clean or "process" anything other than a fish. Could I have old hens "go away" and come "back home" ready for the table, who...

    When our chickens get old

    I totaly agree with Rocketdad. I raised rabbits years ago and named them. I then raised rabbitts to sell and eat. I never named any of the for sale rabbits but still felt guilty when I did eat some of the for sale rabbits. Rabbit is very good and does not taste gamey at all. I would raise...

    When our chickens get old

    I have a Mexican friend that makes tacos and burittioes out of them. He does all my extra roosters and the older hens that stop laying. I am lucky to have such a good friend.

    Please give me any information you have on Dry type incubation

    Mrs. Glassman you are right. I saw the same write up and it convinced me that I have been drowning my chicks. That write up caused me to try dry type incubation. I also read several other people's stories. I sure hope this increases my hatch rate. I was having good hatch rates this fall and...

    ok installed a tiny pc fan and temps sky rocketed im my LG!!!~~HELP!!

    Make sure there is a gap between the surface where you mounted the fan. The fan motor sounds like it is overheating. You might also make sure that the amperage for the fan and the power source are compatiable. The last thing is some fans turn only one way. Look on the cover for a direction...

    Please give me any information you have on Dry type incubation

    I am doing testing on Dry type incubation in foam cooler type incubators. I think I have been drowning my chicks in the egg. I have seen some information that says these type incubators often drown chicks. Please let me know if you have done it this way and please give me any information I might...
