    Does anyone buy from Modesto Milling Organic Feed?

    I live in southern Oregon and I drive 50 miles one-way down into California to obtain Modesto Mills' feed. I find it's an outstanding feed, and substantially better than the locally-produced Rogue Valley feeds I could easily obtain here in my own area. My fowl love it, and do extremely well on...

    I haven't raised Welsummers but I've heard good things about them, especially their egg color. ;) ... Swedish Flower Hens look similar to Icelandics. Icelandics tipped the scale for me because of their need for preservationists to support their cause. I'm glad I decided on 'em!

    Review by '' on item 'Icelandic or Viking Hen'

    I've raised a lot of different kinds of chickens, and this landrace (NOT a breed, google it) is far and away the most awesome chickens I've ever had. They do everything you want a homestead flock to do, in spades! If you're looking for a terrific flock for your farm, or even for your urban coop...

    How does a wafer thermostat work?

    Did you consider installing a Circulated Air Fan Kit for Hova Bator Incubators inside your 1602? That would greatly improve its reliability by stabilizing the temperature inside the 1602!

    RCOM-20 Calibration

    Wondering the ultimate outcome with your RCom-20? I've had the exact same issue with my unit and could never figure out how to get the digital reading to match my wet bulb hygrometer reading. I realize it's been nearly two years, but can you provide an update? Did you try the dry hatch method in...

    Gould's wild turkeys again

    I emailed this fella Joey who runs this site for Gould's, asking if he knew of a source for eggs or poults: http://www.nwtfhuagoulds.org/turkey-sightings-and-credits---thanks-to-you.html He bluntly let me know that they're not in the habit if "stealing" eggs from hens. Well alrighty then ... lol.

    penciled chocolate Palm turkey photos?

    I just ordered my first turkeys from Porters, and I included the Penciled Choc Palms in the order. They were mentioned as available but the link for them was missing, so I googled and found it. Like you said, not a great photo of it, but I'm going off the look of the other penciled varities...
