    Farmlite door - help needed in programing

    I purchased a Farmlite door for the coop. I had it set on the timer to open and close the door but it got to much to change the timer weekly due to the change in the season. I switched it to open by the light sensor but to be honest I'm not sure the sensor ever worked. I was still opening it and...

    Geese feeder - Spring/bolt style feeder

    I've been looking for a different style feeder other than a bowl which gets dumped on the ground. I saw a spring attached to the underside of a bucket that was said to be a "Spring Feeder" but can't find any in the United States. Then I saw a barrel with bolts sticking out much like the spring...

    Tired of feeding freeloaders

    If something is a pest to you, they will be a pest to someone else. It isn't fair to unload your problem onto someone else.

    Kitchen counter top storage dispensers

    It's been a long time since I've had chickens and was wonder how folks store their fresh eggs these days? I honestly cannot remember how I used to do it except that I never put them in the refrigerator. I saw a short video with a dispenser and wanted your thoughts. The included picture is copied...

    Anyone wanna talk about how high a goose can fly? Lol

    Oh great!! I'm getting 3 goslings at the end of the month. I was hoping a short wattle fence would be fairly easy to construct and keep them from my garden. I guess I'm back to the drawing board. My first thought was an electrified poultry netting. Then thought the need to move it every so...

    Winterizing goose coop

    Thanks for getting back to me. Just had another question pop up. I know they need to clean their nares/nostrils. When I had ducks I just gave them water in the mornings and evenings with their food. Will that be enough for geese? The ducks seemed fine with it or at least they made it a...

    Winterizing goose coop

    I've been researching geese in winter and you're reply is the closest I've come to getting my question answered. I also live in a cold climate and was wondering how often a geese coop needs to be cleaned in winter? I'm planning on ordering some geese and just want all my questions answered...

    Hen red comet or red sexlink Marlborough CT

    I have a hen about 1 1/2. I don't know which breed she is. They all look the same except some have small combs and some have large ones. She's a great layer. I get an egg a day from her. She is the lowest in the pecking order of the hens but bullies the pullets. I think a change of scenery...

    Montville, CT

    >>>Shayune: I live in Oakdale as well. I live on 1 1/2 acres, and I have six chickens Wow, 1 1/2 acres! That's a lot of land compared to 6 chickens. I have just over an acre with 17 average chickens and 5 banties. We still have lots of unused land even though our chickens free range in a...

    Chicken Scratch - what's up with the change?

    Do any of you use chicken scratch? I'm shocked that only one person has responded. So my next update: Purchased yet another bag on Sunday. This time from AgWay. The scratch is more uniform in size. It too has some fairly large pieces of corn but not as big as Purina's. The chickens don't...

    Chicken Scratch - what's up with the change?

    Update: Just called Purina, they also bag Producer's Pride! I knew they had to come from the same place.

    Chicken Scratch - what's up with the change?

    Percheron chick, thanks for replying, But what are the odds that I'd get the "end of the run" from two different producers? It just feels like a terrible change by all producers or I'm starting to experience memory loss. I've been tossing scratch for 4 yrs. It keeps my chicks happy...

    Chicken Scratch - what's up with the change?

    Has anyone seen a change in chicken scratch? A month or so ago I purchased some from Tractor Supply, like I've done before more than once. This last bag had whole corn and a lot of weird powder. My chickens, red sex links, don't eat the whole corn or even the bigger cracked corn. The banties...

    Khaki Campbell drake - looking for hens - CT

    I have a Khaki Campbell drake who lost his hens last fall and I don't plan on replacing them. He was supposed to be a hen himself but... He was born March 2012. He's a nice duck but my husband said he probably wouldn't taste good (which translates: I don't want anything to do with prepare...
