    Help help help! Knowledge needed.

    To add to what others have said, I am a firm believer that a lot of the "inevitable" losses with Cornish X are actually (with some exceptions of course) quite preventable with proper nutrition. People over-feed them in my opinion. When I follow Meyer Hatchery's feeding directions, which call for...

    Oh man, do I know the feeling! I had one of those bellies that went straight out. Things like putting on shoes and shaving my legs became rather difficult. But I found out that it was still easier (but less fun!) than having the baby on the outside lol

    I was asking them, but anyone can reply! I'd love to hear others' opinions too :)

    Peaceful dispatch discussion

    Can't say I've ever heard of giving the birds alcohol before dispatch, but in a way, I could see why this might work for you. Of course drinking alcohol would probably have some long-term negative effects, but if it's right before dispatch and they seem calm and comfortable, I think it's...

    Hesitating with dispatching them

    The first time is definitely the most difficult. It's not that it gets easier to take a life, but you do eventually gain more confidence in doing it smoothly without error. It's natural to have second thoughts, but just assess if this is really what you want to do. If you don't, then like others...

    How exciting! And you're so lucky to have gotten so much stuff already from church friends! It really does add up, so get anything secondhand (except carseat of course) that you can. We did, and saved so much money! We made a beautiful nursery and dress our baby in such cute clothes, but all on...

    This seems like such great advice! Thank you! :) I'm only 3 months into my motherhood journey, but I have already found a lot of this to be true. My standards for keeping the house clean, looking good, etc. have had to slip a little and it's hard to deal with. Thank for for reminding me that...

    Home remedies for dog arthritis?

    500 mg capsule 2x/day for a ~70 lb dog. This is the one I use but I don't think it matters what brand, as long as there aren't any weird additives. https://www.iherb.com/pr/swanson-green-lipped-mussel-500-mg-60-capsules/109022

    Possible to free range meat birds with egg layers?

    Others have given you some really good answers here, but I just wanted to add my 2 cents that the one time I got Freedom Rangers (Meyer Hatchery - they may have been called Rainbow Rangers, can't remember), they were mean as hell and extra flighty. They also started crowing before I was planning...

    Home remedies for dog arthritis?

    I should probably update you guys: After a while of my dog limping daily, I decided to double his dose (1 capsule per meal instead of just 1 in the morning) of green lipped mussel, and he has not limped since!!!! This stuff really works, guys. Plus it's cheap and natural. I buy the Swanson's...

    What is a Sapphire Sky?

    Nice! Yeah mine lays a light green color now that she has fully matured. On some days they do look a little more blue though.
