HI all!
From WI, and am currently in process of building a "supercoop"! as my DH calls it. :celebrate
I'm overwhelmed by so many options and opinions but a couple that I've looked at from these recommendations that was a concern to me was the limited operating temps. I have to have a door that...
Year old light Brahma was standing outside of the coop last night just before it's time to lock them up. She was standing in front of something long and white I was wondering what in the world it was! I grabbed my phone and took a picture and kept her away from it. She took two steps and sat...
Evening all,
It's been awhile since posting but occasionally read a page or so.... Always lots to read and not enough time to write.

Farm and Fleet in Verona (unsure of other what other locations carry) order from Cackle Hatchery.
They have 194 varieties and something to keep in mind is that some are bred for egg production, others are show quality. Their catalog does have pictures of kids winning at fairs.

I came across this link (sorry if it didn't copy correctly, I'm on my phone) and did lots of research on wazine 17 (piperazine) and found out that its actually used on household...
I understand they are trying to cover their arse, but if you really look at all the information on piperazine (wazine 17), you'd also see that it has also been used for treating household pets AND people!
All three people i spoke to said that they would eat the eggs anyway.
That being said, i...
Also..... Are the eggs ok to eat? I haven't noticed anything different about them but I can't help but feel a bit grossed out. I understand they've likely been the a while but still.
:sick
I will probably have to throw away the eggs after treatment too, right ?
Good morning all, sorry to start my conversation off with a gross topic, but I need help.
1- the chickens were just up here by the house and I went out with the dog and noticed a fresh pile of poo MOVING!

3- what are they and how do I...
Hi all,
Tired of being cold but I suppose it could be worse. Count my blessings, right? At least I don't have snow! (Apologies to those who do) :hide
Been busy running the mom taxi around, heading into Madison in a bit to take DS7 to get a couple baby teeth pulled. Permanent are in behind them...
Good to know about the Dotties and EEs!
I did go buy a couple saddles from Cluck today. I got one on and the other hen really squaked and fussed and kicked and I just let her go. I'll try again tomorrow. I might try to find some snaps to adjust it. It is the HenSaver brand, single strand of...
Thank you for your help Delisha and CC! Wow, nice aprons CC! Do you make them or buy them(or both) I've not looked into it much, and really have no info on how,when,and for how long. Do you take them off every night? How long does it take to grow new feathers? Will they be wearing them all...
Hi all! my new roo "Mister" is settling right in with the girls and getting bold enough to start acting like a roo should! :)
a few of my hens have bare backs/spots on the wing base from the old roosters mounting simultaneously (both ended up dinner) and I'm wondering if I need to/can do...
Congrats on that!!! I don't live in Belleville, but have heard a few complain that the town doesn't allow. I don't think anyone has pushed for it at all though.
Happy Easter everyone!
Im finally warm in this wonderful weather, was blessed at church this morning and stuffed with delicious food this afternoon with family. Life doesn't get much better !
I hope you all have a great day too!
Amy
There's certainly no shooting anyone, just wondering what he is!
He actually spent most of the day out of the coop roaming around with the girls. It's been pretty funny watching him get only so far from the coop, look at the hens, then the coop, hens, BEE Line for the coop as fast as he can...
