Is there a way for users to customize how many posts are shown per page on threads? I'm a fast reader and especially in picture threads I feel like the page is barely loaded before I'm ready to go on to the next page.
I have all the major home improvement stores and several farm stores nearby. Home Depot, Lowes, Menards, Northern Tool, Bomgaars, Mill's Fleet Farm, Theisons, Farm and City, Tractor Supply, etc. I'll be enclosing an 81 sq ft run so I'll need quite a bit.
I ordered 15 chicks to be sent mid May. The average high is in the low 70's and the average low is around 50 that time of year. I assumed I would keep the chicks in a large tote or kiddie pool or even sectioned off area of the laundry room. I quickly realized this was only a temporary solution...
I hear lots of talk about mealworms and scratch and also see it sold next to other general chicken supplies at the feed stores. For starters, what exactly is "scratch"? Is mealworms and/or scratch imperative to a laying chicken's diet? Is it just a treat? If it's just a treat, is there a reason...
I was just getting ready to order my first ever batch of chicks and at checkout it asks me if I want marek's or coccidiosis vaccine. I've pretty much ruled out cocci, but what about marek's? Is this something my chicks are at risk for? I live in Iowa, if that matters.
