    Holy cow, the local stores around here sell half a gallon for less than 5 here, I just dilute it 'cause it's so sweet

    Question of the Day - Friday, July 25th, 2025

    I normally add it to English breakfast tea just to use it up since English breakfast is one of the few teas I don't like. They improve each other, the sweetness of the eggnog gets cut and the English breakfast tea is tolerable

    Broody or Bust: Can You Handle a Sitting Hen?

    1. B I've certainly encountered the angry pancake before, although Basil made dinosaur noises rather than growled 2. This depends a bit for me, I usually leave hens alone when they're in the nest box, if I suspect a hen might be going broody, I'll leave her alone and come back later, if she's...

    Question of the Day - Saturday, July 19th, 2025

    Indeed! I was born in Florida which is often called the lightning capital of the world so lightning safety was drilled into me from a young age, the TV wasn't even allowed to be on if it was thundering even a little bit, never mind going outside. The incident that happened when I was 8 happened...

    Mentally Challenged Orpington Pullet

    Keep her body refrigerated but not frozen and contact your state's lab immediately to arrange for a necropsy. If you need ice packs to mail her in ask around at your local pharmacies as they get them in when they get shipments of refrigerated medications and they just throw them away when...

    Question of the Day - Saturday, July 19th, 2025

    Considering I'd rather not be electrocuted, no. I once had lightning strike 5ft in front of me when I was 8, like 30ft from me when I got caught in a storm a few weeks ago and never mind all the times lightning struck mere feet away while inside, I've seen firsthand how going outside when it's...

    How intense is your pecking order?

    Nutrient deficiencies (especially protein) can make a flock ornerier than it otherwise would be sometimes, looking at a flock's diet is certainly a good idea if you're having behavior issues, at the very least it may help a little

    Slowing down

    Entirely up to you, some keep their flock for only 2 years before getting younger birds to replace them while others keep them longer. It all just comes down to your goals and preferences. Do what is right for you

    rat bite injury

    ACV wouldn't do anything, using the betadine and neosporin is enough, just keep an eye on it but she should be just fine I would be more concerned about the presence of rats on the property and would look for ways to keep them away from your birds' food. Getting a few barn cats can also be helpful

    Pros and cons of silkies…

    @Debbie292d would best be able to answer your questions I will only add that they are genetically more prone to certain vitamin deficiencies so you should not feed silkie chicks medicated feed and they are also more prone to merak's diseasedisease which is something to keep in mind if the...

    Songs that make your skin crawl.

    I think most teens have more sense than they did, wouldn't call it romantic love either, I bet they couldn't tell you the first thing about the other person, they are certainly infatuated with each other but I wouldn't say they had the makings of a relationship yet
