    how long is an egg fresh?

    Thanks for all of your responses, this site and you guys are awesome! Cousin just ate some and seems fine, the eggs looked ok but I'm afraid. I think I may feed the rest to the pigs! Do I want the chickens to get a taste for eggs?

    how long is an egg fresh?

    Can you believe its been in the low 90's this week? That was the main worry. My cousin keeps telling me " it's FOOD, we cant throw them out". I think he's feeling sentimental, he loves those birds! Like I said, I cracked two and they seemed fine, I have 18 chickens and three lay in the coop. A...

    how long is an egg fresh?

    We have been waiting for our chickens to start laying and it seemed to be taking a while for some of them. Well that is because a whole bunch of them have been laying in an empty pot outside their pen! My cousin just came in with a good dozen of them! So my question is how long does an egg stay...

    What kind of ducks for pets and pigs?

    We are thinking of getting 2 or 3 ducks as pets/layers. We heard they will keep the fly population down around the pigs, anyone have any experience with this? What is a good breed to keep around as pets or egg layers? Can we keep them around the chickens safely? I think my feed store can still...

    Crippled Dutch- what to do?

    It came from the feed store, I will call to ask about vaccines. All the others are fine, though (30 more), even the ones from the same shipment. But that thought makes me glad i separated her (?) I just found out mine like pasta, too. Thanks for your concern SpottedCrow Karen G

    Chicken Ark on Forsham Design

    Here is a pic of our first tractor. We built it to keep the chickens in the garden rows when they were teenagers. It housed about 10 small pulletts. It took a weekend and about $300 to build. It is pretty heavy with the asphalt shingles, but we lag bolted 8" wheels to a 4X4 post, then we just...

    Crippled Dutch- what to do?

    mtnhomechick, sorry to hear we are in the same boat. She seems more content in the brooder, but flops to the food and water then flops back to her favorite corner. I am hoping that a few days confinement will help, but I know the odds aren't good. Wow, I looked at your chicken traction and you...

    Crippled Dutch- what to do?

    This is my 7 week old dutch (not sure of sex) that is injured, I think it might have happened while moving the tractor last week. It has energy and looks healthy, but is less and less mobile. It can flap and tries to run, but falls to one side, eves eats and drinks laying down. I brought it...

    Royal Palm babies

    Introducing our new babies; three 3 day old Royal Palm turkeys. These are my first and I am surprised how much more active and curious they are than the chickens. They dont seem as "stupid" as rumored. They found their food and water right away. I got 3 chicks (Wyandottes) to be with them as I...

    Mille pullett or cockrel?

    I will let you know as soon as I hear anything suspect in the yard! That was probably why they were left over.
