    Mr. Not so welcomed friend Kill or not?

    Okay so honestly how many eggs could a snake eat? My concern is that we have recently seen opossum and little field mice around out building where we keep the feed which is about 50 feet from out coop. I would love to let mr snake live so he can eat the mice. I also thought that the purpose of...

    How much noise do hens make?

    My hens I have three are quiet much less noise than the neighbors dogs. If you have a picky neighbor you may find out no matter what you do will cause them to call the HOA on you. I would say you would have more complaints about smell or flies than you ever would with noise. Unless of course...

    How to get rid of Mr. Roo?

    The silly girls try to squeeze through their fence run because its garden/cattle fence so they can get their little heads through. I might just have to confine them to the coop that has chicken wire so the looney things will not break their necks trying to get out to look for him. I knew the...

    How to get rid of Mr. Roo?

    Thats a neat idea but I honestly want to rid my house of him , hes a big guy and though he forages through the yard most the day he eats his fill of grain. I also want to protect my and my neighbors garden this spring so that means more time in the coop and run for all of them.

    How to get rid of Mr. Roo?

    We have had Mr. Roo for over a year now and my daughter has finally saw the light that we are not a Rooster type of family . Our three hens have a little to say about that, as when we separate them the girls go nuts. From what I have read as their acting protector this is normal behavior. I...

    Mr. Roo AKA Eagle keeps escaping

    funny thing is I have never seen this bird fly or even hop for that matter. He is more of a strutter, he will shake his feathers and fluff up but I have ever even seen a flap out of him. We were leaning on keeping him because basically he is a great big wimp. He is a huge bird in comparison to...

    Mr. Big Roo Eagle the white rooster keeps escaping from the fenced in run that is at least 6ft tall . What Can I do we have a total of 4 roosters that are leaving this weekend so he can be the man in charge but I keep thinking if all he ever does is jump the fence then maybe he should find a...

    How, When , and what to look for

    If I knew which ones are roosters , I would gladly just give them away. They are all really nice birds not a mean one in the bunch. Our local sale is held every Thursday . I refuse to take them out there because in our area of NC we do have issues with cock fighting locally. I do not want to...
