    Volunteer tomatoes growing next to my coop...

    Has anyone had this happen? I never planted tomatoes, but I feed my girls leftover tomatoes from time to time. I'm assuming that's where these plants came from?

    Can I feed 3 week old chicks greens?

    I was wondering if it would be okay to give my 3 week old chicks some veggies like radicchio, bok choy leaves and broccoli? I have a lot of extras in my garden and thought they might enjoy, but don't want to start too soon if it's not good for them. Also would they need grit? I know the lady at...

    Question about feeding new chicks...

    I have four day old araucana chicks and have been feeding them Ace Hi chick starter mash. I was wondering if it's okay to mix Purina start & grow with it. I wasn't sure if that would be too much, or if it would provide them a beet balanced diet. If anyone has any information it would be greatly...
