    Topic of the Week - Feeding table scraps to your flock

    I only have 1 Silkie, she is very fussy about scraps. She loves corn on the Cobb, Watermelon and lobster. I freeze plain yogurt in ice cube trays and add mealy worms or crickets to them. Both her and the hedgehog get those and love them.

    Indoor Pet Silkie

    I have an indoor pet Silkie, she has a coop in the house, plus spends time outside as well. My question is, is it safe to put "Feline Fresh" litter in her indoor coop. It is "a natural by-product of the lumber industry" There are no chemicals or toxins, it is entirely made of pine product. I...

    Chicken diapers?

    I just bought a diaper from LouisesCountryCloset.com and it's very easy to use, if your bird cooperates. Mine didn't and she hates it! But she is an indoor pet and I just can't have all that poop...I am hoping she will get used to it eventually. This is my first chicken and EVERYTHING is...
