I recently got some new hens which seem to have very pale looking combs and wattles. They just look faded, they are otherwise eating great, laying eggs, pooping fine. Poop is brown with white looks healthy, no signs of disease just light red combs and wattles and kind of pink looking? What do...
Okay so potatoes need to be grown where there has never been eggplant, tomatoes, or potatoes for starters or were sod has recently been overturn. (Protects them from pests). I grow my potatoes in 10 gallon grow bags above ground, I plant one seed potato per bag, then keep the soil pH acidic...
Heres what I have already started and ready to be planted into the garden:
Carrots, 3 types of snap peas, pole beans, thyme, rosemary, oregano, basil, peppers, brandywine tomatoes, and big boy tomatoes, zuchinni, summer squash, pumpkins for carving and sweet baby pumpkins for canning...
How can you tell which hen is eating eggs, I found pieces of eggshell in the nest box this afternoon. i go in several times a day to collect eggs. Thanks
I think chickens are pretty smart, mine follow me and want to come in my house and sometimes do...they def. trust me and know that I will give them treats and stuf
Is it possible, I found a golf ball sized hard poop in the coop the other day. I have two Isa Browns that lay reularly, and one 43 week RIR that has never laid an egg yet. do yu think she was constipated? she had been pooping fine, or is that a fart egg?
Last year, I started a flock of RIR's for meat and eggs, to my dissappointment most of the meat was very tough, and so this year I am keeping the RIR hens for eggs and would like advice on the best of the best for meat birds something that doesn't take too long either...Thanks...love everyone's...
