    What does it mean when my pullets lay down on their sides and puff up?

    Definately sounds like a dust bath; are the older girls attacking the newbys?

    Can I Cook My Meat Bird Immediately After Processing?

    We haven't had any luck with cooking a bird, or for that matter, freezing a bird, immediately after processing. But once we learned to let it set a bit we now have the most tender meat around. Luckily we figured this out before this Thanksgiving, where we and a few others had our Turkeys on the...

    Egg Sizes

    One of my girls has been laying for a week now (my first eggs ever!), and her first 4 eggs were pretty small, but then a few days ago, she laid a whopper! Bigger than the large eggs at the store. I though that was the size she would regularly reach, but her last two have been small again. Has...
