Sorry to hear about the kook neighbor! I would keep my flock close, it sounds to me he is on the look-out for someone to blame! Can't really blame him for being mad though, I know how he feels, had 11 turkeys killed 2 weeks ago by some dogs. Still on the lookout, and yes, I am out thousands of...

Hi There! I am in Sprague River, just east of Klamath Falls! Welcome!

I'd like to say that I think turkeys are much easier than chicks. My bronze breasted heritage turkeys are smarter, and alot of fun~. They are over 10weeks now, and I had a horrible thing happen last Sunday. A neighbors pit bulls ate through the wire pen and killed 10, and injured 5 more. I am...

I live in the pacific northwest region, in Oregon. We get snow here, Jan-March, and it can dip down to -12 on a cold winter night. I have barred rock, and roade island red chickens, very hearty breeds. Our chicken coop is large, 12X 18. I keep them in on very cold, snowing windy days in winter...

Been feeding my hens everything from leftover lasagne to old hamberger(cooked, but not spoiled, just too old to eat) for years, and of course anything that I would throw in the compost pile.( My compost pile is non-excistant now though) My eggs are the tastiest eggs, and everyone who buys them...

That is a very good price! Yes, this is good, for layer hens...But I also give my layer hens dog kibble when I run out! Read about it somewhere, can't remember where, but dog kibble has bone meal, omega 3's, and calcium, protein, ect. Get the good stuff, all natural the kind you feed your dog...

I had a comment, even though my name is debbie turkey lady, I have had chickens for 4 years now, and have some experience with starter feed, layer feed, etc. First off, the starter feed you buy at the feed store is medicated, and has vitamins for the little chicks. After a couple of weeks, I'd...
