"We brine our turkey's and chickens before smoking and we love the flavor. We got this brine recipe from Alton Brown and it's never failed us." You can't go wrong with following something from Alton Brown.

Sorry, I just saw the post so you already used it, but in the future with a new one make sure you turn it on first and let it heat ahead of your first use to "burn" off the coating from the factory. I read this in the manual and I am glad I did it because it smoked a little. Never had a problem...

I just got done processing the last of my turkeys (broad breasted bronzes), and on two of them in the thigh while gutting them I found what almost looked like a piece of intestine (couldn’t find where it was attached though) going through the meat not in the body cavity. I accidently cut into...

There are two permits: one is a personal use I believe $25.00 or $30.00 (sry can't remember) second is commercial use $45.00 (needed to sell anything with them) The permit you need sent to you is a propagation permit and you choose which one you want (per or comm) check box, enter info, send...

Good luck to you. I work as a Deputy, and have to deal with neighbors like this all the time. When I looked to buy a home that was one of the most important things I wanted was no problems with the neighbors. I was lucky for 7 years now, but now my neighbor deciedes to be a problem. (a little...

Mine went through a molt but I believe it has been done for a little while now and still no eggs. Any thoughts?

Just pull the husks back (in a handle) and throw it in. Mine LOVE corn on the cob. Plus as a bonus they like to eat the bugs that come after the husks. I have all of my relatives save the cobs even after they eat the corn off.

If you have a catch and release trap set it out. If you catch one of your cats you can let it out the next morning (no harm done), and if you catch a racoon in it you can let it out the next morning (with a very big hole where it's head used to be) .

I have 21 turkey poults using one waterer and only need to change it every other day. It has never gotten yucky it just gets low. My chicken one does occasionly but I use bleach water and scrub it out, it seems to be fine for a while after it. I would make sure it is up high enough so they don't...

I made mine from a galvanized hog feed pan $2.50, 5 gallon bucket $2.99, all hardware $1.78 everything came from tractor supply. The hardware was for two feeders and I over did it as always. I drilled 1 inch holes around the base then bolted the bucket to the pan. My turkeys can eat from it just...

It should be fine, I know they use grain from distilleries for animal feed all the time. Good for you on the score with feed prices going up.

I went out to feed and water the chickens today and to my suprise there were little chicks around mom today. This was a great find since I just had to get rid of a nest that didn't hatch last week and I lost count of the days this hen had been sitting on this nest. My wife and kids went out and...

Thanks everybody, I moved them and they are fine. As soon as I put them in the larger brooder they all started running around chasing each other like they went mad. (I could of stayed there and watched them all day)

I'm glad yours is able to hatch some of their own. I am working on that with my chickens and so far nothing.

I have 21 new BBB turkeys, I have them in a plastic tote brooder with a sheet for the bottom. I have their permenant brooder ready and warm, but I have pine shavings and I don't want to put them in it to soon because of them picking at the shavings and getting impacted. My question is when to...

Just got them today. A day early and one freebie. 21 instead of 20.

Quote: I just got 21 BBB poults today. Supposed to of been tomarrow and 20. Good thing I had the brooder warming up already and a freebie.

Take and process them in the fall. I will keep most and freeze / can them. My friend and my dad want a couple. What's left will be sold for thanksgiving.

I should be getting my 20 BBB turkeys on friday!
