    Looking for Hatching Goose Eggs - All breeds considered.

    I have some eggs that I "think" will be crosses. I'm really not sure what I'm going to have. I did have a large flock, sold most of them off, and I only have 8 birds right now. They are not laying really fast. They were giving me 3 eggs a day for a while but now only 1 every 3 days! LOL...

    How to kill a rabbit?

    I dress my own rabbits. I don't like the way my husband does it, which is the bonk, but he makes a mess of things. I take a piece of iron rebar, put it on the back of the head, right behind the head, and stand on the ends and then pull up. You can kind of tell when the back breaks. Then I...

    Transporting chickens

    I don't know if it was on this board or not, but I saw some really neat chicken transport boxes. They were banana boxes, and over the bottom and top holes was wire that had been just basically wired into the boxes and then the boxes also have holes on all four sides for ventilation. You could...

    Eastern Iowa Poultry Association Annual Show, November 29-30

    I was able to get in touch with Mrs. Shank today and they are sending me a booklet via e-mail. She told me as long as they know the registration is coming they will not exclude you, even if the postmark is after the 12th. I told her that I had been trying to reach her and she said that was...

    Eastern Iowa Poultry Association Annual Show, November 29-30

    Okay, I hear a lot on here about people bathing and blow drying their chickens. I have never done that, as I say, I have never been to a show. Anyway, that is something just to make them prettier and softer of course, but what do they bathe them with? Also, seems like the chickens need to be...

    Eastern Iowa Poultry Association Annual Show, November 29-30

    Okay, so if I can get time to go to this with my light Sussex are you all going to show me what to do? I'm going to be dumb here, cause I also have never gone to a bird show, but here's my questions. What do you do with the bird? You just take it in its own cage and does the judge handle it...

    I GOT MY LIGHT SUSSEX!!!!!

    The eggs will be a possibility as well. I only have the 2 chickens, so until i can hatch a few, which I will start when the first egg starts, LOLOL, it may take a while to get any eggs. I will also be hatching some so I can have a few more hens, then I will think about it. Probably later in...

    Sorry I haven't been able to be on here for a bit. Problems with the internet and all. Yes, I got my birds from Paul. He sent me the last ones for this year. My chickens are the next generation from his Australian imported chickens. They are gorgeous, aren't they? They are very quiet birds...
