    Why does quail make an unusual sound when laying eggs?

    My wife made unusual sounds when she had our children. It's all starting to add up!

    Question about brooder in garage

    We had chicks in our "brooder" tote with a heat lamp in the garage. Air temperature was around -2F. Had to keep the lid on the tote and cover with a towel to keep them warm enough. It's risky but it can be done.

    What's the temperature where you are???

    -13 with calm wind. Sun just broke the horizon, should see temps above zero soon. You know its cold when your cold tap water steams. The ducks are eagerly awaiting their routine sunbathe.

    So cold they’re not eating

    It was -15 here this morning and I didn't want to come out of the house. Similar concept, give them some time and they will figure it out.

    Harris Farms Nurture Right 360

    I was going to get it but decided to spend the extra money on the borotto real 24 with humidity pump and it was worth the extra 200 all day long.

    How to cut the cost of feeding chickens?

    It supplements the need for commercial feed at an average of $0.03 per pound. Costing around $1.20 per 40 pounds compared to a 40 pound bag of scratch at $9.49 per bag. Using a bag per week your looking at an annual savings of $431.08 per year.

    Unsteady Pekin Duck

    She hasn't improved and was starting to develop wet feather due to her inability to stand. She has been culled. 😥
