    B.Y.C. Dorking Club!

    Hello, I'm looking for Dorkings in the VA/MD area for a historical project. I'm cooking a Medieval feast in June and I'm looking for around 10 chickens that are currently ready for table or I could buy now and have them ready by late June. And if you have a few Dorking hens that are laying or...

    How do you manage going away from home for a few days?

    I trade off with a friend who has chickens. When she goes away I watch her chickens and she does the same when I leave town.

    Dog for chicken protection?

    Do you leave your GP out at night Clucky Jay? We had an Anatolian and he'd come in for some a/c in the afternoon but he opened our back door every night if we forgot let him out before we went to bed. He died last year and we had a total lost of our flock 28 chickens in under 2 weeks and I...

    fox!

    I live in an area of 3 to 5 acre lots. A bunch of my neighbors have chickens or rabbits. I have 2 friends that had chickens that were free ranging while they were working in the yard, and a fox came and grabbed the chickens while they were not 20 feet away. One was riding her lawn mower when...

    fox!

    Foxes are getting so bold! I saw a fox walking across my patio last night. My sister, hubby and I were hanging out talking and the fox comes 4 feet under us. I know it could hear us. Then it headed toward my chicken coop!

    Looking for the name of the hatchery in Pa with cheap meat chicks

    Hi, I was reading one of these threads and someone scanned in a sales order sheet for a hatchery in Pa with really cheap meat chickens. Like under a dollar per chick. I can't remember which thread had that information. Anyone remember this? Thanks, Kristi

    What are you planting or growing this year?

    where did you get the starts for the fingerling potatoes? And I grew hubbard last year and I thought they would be like other winter squash and they were kind of soft and more like summer squash in flavor to me. I didn't really know what to do with them. Any suggestions on how to cook the...

    Has anyone done a willow living fence?

    I saw on BackyardDiva's blog a picture of a living tunnel done with willow and did a google search and there are so many things you can make with living willow! My mind is blown and now I think I need one of those around my garden to keep the chickens at bay until the plants are bigger. Has...

    Fermenting Feed for Meat Birds

    Please forgive me if this has been asked before, but whole grains are what we should be using? I've got the crumbles from Southern States and I'm wondering if I can use that until it's gone then switch to the whole grains. Heavier, healthier meat birds are pretty irresistible, so I must try...

    Home Feeding Ideas and Solutions Discussion Thread

    I won't swear to it, but it's off the big rail road trail that's biking/horse/people. I don't think they can afford to spray the whole thing, and this area is all farms.

    Home Feeding Ideas and Solutions Discussion Thread

    About the duckweed, I see it growing all over our local ponds, and some of them are off our public walking trails. Can I just grab a baggie of that stuff or do I need to buy it from a grower?

    Earthworms as treats

    My chickens have been going nuts for the little black ants that are everywhere around here. I'm currently spring cleaning all my flower tubs I up-ended them and the ants had made massive colonies in the potting soil. The chickens have been feasting on those boogers for the last few days.

    bananas

    So, I got 5lbs of bananas for a dollar at the store cause they were speckled! Perfectly good inside no bruising or anything. I tried feeding some to my babies, 1 and 3 weeks old and most of them leave it alone and the few that will give it a try go crazy for the peel and sit on the actual...
