So I have a broken kegerator that I was thinking of turning into a cabinet incubator.....Only I have no Idea!! What do I need, and what do I need to do? I may be able to talk my dad into making it but I may need to do it myself. thanks

I call mine "Death Row" because that is where the excess roosters are located. So far I have only had one problem. They picked on the leghorn rooster, who previously was a top "dog", he had to go to camp early. Other than that, just changing the pecking order. It took about two weeks and...

i rate it a ........FUNKY CHICKEN!! Tell your DH to lay off, you got a super cool bird.

i agree with everyone else, just give it time. If they did lay a XL egg at this age, they would die. they simply can't pass an egg that big yet, they will when they get older and their pelvic bones expand. these little eggs work well for burgers or toad in the hole toast.

I baked a futsu squash a couple of days ago and took the rind with just a little left on it out to the birds. I can't find a bit left, I wonder if they liked it? I'm going to plant lady godiva pumpkins next year for the naked pumpkin seeds they produce. I figure I can feed the girls the...
