    San Diego/riverside/Orange - MUSCOVY EGGS WANTED

    I am hoping to find muscovy eggs within driving distance and within a reasonable price range. I have never had luck with shipped eggs, so I am bypassing that option, all together. I have 2 hens, but only 1 seems to lay eggs, and the other goes broody, but is the absolutely worst mother I have...

    21 days till Market Week

    The kids cornish are way behind the power curve. they are about 1/2 the size of the other kids birds. That is partially my fault because I didn't have the grow out brooder ready and they stayed in the chick brooder much longer than they should have, didn't get much sun exposure, etc. they...

    turkey just dropped dead - would you eat it?

    The boys are raising BB Whites for the fair. I have 2 that were banded for my son to work with. I let the rest free range and his 2 stay in the pen so the feed can be controlled better. They keep knocking the water over so it has to be filled several times a day. I wasn't home much the last...

    USDA Processors in San Diego County?

    Other than Taj Farms in Valley Center, does anyone know of a USDA place that will process birds for you? Hoping to find one a little closer in North County and one that would be a little cheaper for the larger birds, too. I can handle $5 per chicken but $25 is steep for the turkey, especially...

    Flipping %*&#$(&^&@ Blue Jay!!!

    Had a broody hatch out and because she is in a well secured area, I figured I'd leave her there. Not even 10 minutes ago, from my front yard, I hear a chick "screaming" and I run...I mean RUN and I just don't run! I get to the back and I don't have my glasses on so all it looked like was (2)...

    Waste Not, Want Not?

    I know must of us garden with the goal to be able to feed our families. If any peas make it in the house, they are lucky because I eat them right then and there. Same with Strawberries and I justify it by my doing all the work. However, there is something else that I have been thinking about...

    Hard Boiled eggs in WHAT?????

    Being as that we always have eggs on hand, this isn't the ONLY time of year we may have extra hard boiled eggs, but it is a fun time to discuss what you do with them. I actually saw a recipe for chocolate chip cookies that used hard boiled eggs. What are some of your favorite ways to use up...

    I know this subject has been broached before, but I would like some current opinions on the subject of cleaning eggs. I sell my eggs. I have regular customers who purchase a couple dozen each week. Most of the time my eggs are pristine - not a spot or fleck on them. However, when it rains...
