I've tried to do as much research as possible but I have a few questions I haven't found answers to I'm hoping someone can help me with.
I have 6 adult pekin (males) I'd like to try to butcher this upcoming weekend. Most of them were born in late March (3/16 & 3/30) but a few were born in...
I do accept paypal. I have been charging a flat fee of $6 for shipping.
I took some pictures this morning of what I have available at the moment. They aren't the best as I took them quickly w/my cell phone (flash on since my house was darker). I will try to upload better pictures when I...
How old do you suggest birds be for fair?
My son showed this year for the first time. He did better anticipated but we are both wanting try to learn so he can hopefully be more prepared next year.
No one is sick this morning.
Beekissed - my grandmother was born and raised on a farm which was why her comments took me by surprise.
The flavor was very rich. There weren't any leftovers mainly because there wasn't a whole lot of meat on him. But my kids enjoyed it and it was nice to be...
I dispatched my first chicken on Saturday. After cleaning it I tossed it in a cooler with ice water and a small touch of ACV for 6 - 8 hrs. I then rinsed it off with cool water, patted it dry and put it in a plastic bag in the fridge.
I've read a lot on here about letting them sit for 3 days...
Our chickens are home-raised and the eggs are hand-gathered daily. I blew these eggs out with the intention of using them myself. I don't see that happening anytime in the near future so I thought I'd offer them here.
These are great for Christmas tree ornaments, Easter egg decorating...
Thanks OB. I have no intentions of leaving the ducklings w/the geese. The ducklings are in a smaller pen during the afternoon when it is warm (70*+) w/my call ducks. My calls do a good job of babysitting all the babies. When I put the geese in w/them we watched them to make sure nothing...
I have two geese. They are a year old this year. I haven't been able to determine yet if I have a pair or two ganders. I haven't gotten any eggs but I understand geese are pretty good at hiding them and these geese free range over 7 acres so if they have eggs they could be anywhere.

Did anyone listen to WHO 1040? My mom just called me at work about some guy trying to buy chickens at Shopper's Supply and they wanted him to register or something? She was trying to tell me about it but I couldn't understand what she was saying. Thought maybe someone else might know what it...
I understand the "buyer beware" part. What I'm wondering is if E-bay actually does anything if you "report" them. Some sellers have good feedback simply because people don't realize they aren't getting what is listed. Just looking for a way to warn others.
I'll admit - my bid was purely an...
So is there anything one can do about this? I got outbid on some pekin duck eggs I was bidding on for my son on e-bay and I'm sooooooo thankful I did! When I went to do a search to see where I could find exhibition quality ducks I found the exact same photo on a UK site. While I'd like to...
I love making egg muffins for my boys for breakfast! I'm not sure how creative it is but they are quick, easy and delicious!
15 eggs (for silicone muffin pans, use 12 eggs for metal muffin tins or individual silicone cups. You can use less egg yolks and more egg white if you prefer.)
1-2...
