    I fill their food containers every morning and when they need it. They have food all the time. They are spoiled. Trust me the farm I grow up on when I was a kid taught me well how to feed them. But not how to deal with this problem. I have never seen chickens do this. We had over 100 and...

    Is it normal.....

    It is normal for roosters at almost 2 months old to try and become supper before their due time? Lately about 2 of my roosters think that my fingers and hands are supper. Everything I go to move them so I can clean they try their best to take a piece of skin off. If it is normal... When will it...

    Hemp seed in feed?

    If I have a chicken that is that smart and can get through college. I don't think I will have to worry about them calling for more money. I will be a rich woman.

    I have to agree Nadine. Myrtle is a money trip. I don't understand why anyone who live here in SC even goes there. Now north Myrtle is better but still nothing like Charleston. Like you it holds my heart. I just hope those that go to Myrtle stay there. I would hate to see Charleston get that...

    If you haven't been to Charleston in a while sweetie. I would take a trip down there. It is so worth the gas and the long trip. If it was not for the cars and the way people were dressed; you could have walked back in time. Me and hubby walk for hours around there. Down aille ways you can find...
