So I currently have a broody hen. First time actually dealing with one. Of course she is being as mean as possible to ward off any predators, however the pit bull steals the hens eggs. Our chickens are all free range and go about anywhere they please. I am kinda worried about her safety staying...
So I’ve been out of the chick hatching game for several years. And I’ve moved a few times and gotten rid of my old stuff. What incubator do you prefer to use?
Does anyone know where I would be able to find Nubian goats in West Virginia. My wife and I have been wanting goats for a while. We try to be as self sufficient as possible with gardening and raising chickens, but we want to take our little homestead to the next level and shoot for milk goats.
I’m thinking of adding turkeys to the homestead. Once I can find some of course. I’m curious if anyone keeps their chickens and turkeys together and how well that works? Will my hens hurt young poults or will the turkeys get big and hurt the hens? Will this stress my hens out too much?
