    Oh yeah, Walmart here is not safe either. Anytime of the day, really, but it's more dangerous at night, I'm sure.

    Home remedies for dog arthritis?

    Awesome! What is the MG per capsule and how much does your dog weigh?

    I might try that if she doesn't do well in the crate. But, crate or not, she will be stressed out not being able to follow us around the house.

    Thanks. Even though she is a low-energy couch potato, she is only 6 so I am still worried about her getting restless. She also came to us with a fear of being locked in the crate so I hope this doesn't ruin her progress.

    You're not fooling us. Stop using AI or pics off the internet and claiming it's yours.

    Getting rid of roosters

    Ask around to farmers to see if they'll cull them for you. I didn't get any takers of my cockerel so we ended up butchering him ourselves. It was our first time and we used pipe cutters and it was quick.

    Bracket kit for 6x6 shed /duck house

    If you're going to do this don't make the mistake I did and pick out the 2x4s by hand. I had 2x4s delivered and the knots and gouges were so large that if I cut the 2x4 in half the resulting 2x2 would probably have snapped in half.

    Aspen shavings is giving me nasal congestion?

    Try something else (sand?) to see if the congestion goes away. If it doesn't it's likely the bird dander.

    Worms after recent treatment!?

    Don't chickens originate from warm and moist places? It just doesn't seem right to me to have to use these man-made drugs so frequently. There's got to be a way to prevent worm overload by improving management practices and breeding healthier birds. But how to do that, I don't know...Sorry...

    Let’s Talk Ducks

    What do you love most about keeping ducks? They're very cute and entertaining, they make great fertilizer "tea", and they are gentle to my plants while providing pest control. If you’ve raised both ducks and chickens, which do you prefer—and why? I am still a chicken person. Both have their...

    Worms after recent treatment!?

    Using the dewormers frequently as a preventative without testing to see if the chickens have a high worm load in the first place is one reason dewormers eventually become ineffective. It would be best if you can find a vet or lab that will do fecal testing for you to keep an eye on the worm...

    Black/purple spot on hen comb and occasional open mouth breathing

    I totally understand! No harm in asking.

    Black/purple spot on hen comb and occasional open mouth breathing

    I agree, she looks fine externally. Could be dried blood on her comb from a pecking injury which is not serious. It is also normal for some chickens to get a little bit of poop stuck to their bottom feathers. Doesn't look like anything to be concerned about.
