Hi! I am from Glen Elder but I do not have pullets for sale. Have you tried looking on the NexTec trading website. There are usually some on there if you aren't particular on the breeds. Good luck.

HeChicken I am so sorry for the loss of your friend. Thanks for the reminder to live life to the fullest. I am very interested in the peck-o-matic feeders. Do they waste much feed with them. I feed pellets because mine waste so much. Still with pellets they are so wasteful. Could I get that...

Hello everyone! I hope that this heat is not taking its toll on everyone and their flocks. I got my wonderful husband to help me put a 16 inch exhaust fan in my chicken house. I am hoping that with all of my other fans I can keep them alive. They all go find their shady spots during the day...

Can I ask you to clarify on the "tornado" you saw?  If it didn't touch down, then by definition it wasn't a tornado, only a funnel cloud.  I don't mean to nit-pick here, but I think it's important that people know the difference.  I locked my chickens in last night as well, even though we...

Danz I am so sorry for all of your losses. You need your luck to change real soon. The $$ loss has to hurt but I can not imagine the heart ache. Hugs. We were just on the western edge of the storms and only got a quick shower. I did see a rope tornado but thankfully it did not touch down. I...

Stay safe today my feathered friends. It sounds like it could be a rough evening for everyone. Sorry about the sickness, death losses, and bad customers that seems to be going around. Things have been going pretty good for my girls. I am a bit worried about one of my broody nests though. Last...

Here are a few pictures of my Ador2 Turkey door

Sorry everyone I didn't notice that I linked the wrong one when I was looking this morning. Following is the correct link. I will go back and see if I can delete the previous post. Correct link to 6v Battery Tender 021-0127 Battery Tender Junior 6V 750mA Battery Charger...

I have my turkey door since Rod released them. It is absolutely wonderful. I went with the rechargeable battery that Rid helped me find. It worked great at first but then I started having problems. After a few calls to Rod we thought that we had it fixed. Well, it started acting up again until...

Thanks Danz. I wormed them the last of January so I think they should be good on that. I looked her over good last night but will check closer for mites. I never thought of that. Is Sevin dust okay for that or what does everyone prefer?

Hello everyone! It sounds like everyone has unique wants and options for feed. I use medicated chick starter when I have chicks and layer pellets for the flock. If I don't use pellets they just waste so much of it. I think that there is a local feed mill that I could buy feed from but they do...

I know what it is like living out in the middle of nowhere. I have to drive 45 miles to the nearest Orscheln's and 80 to TSC. We do what we have to do.

I only charged $3 for my eggs previously too because my customers thought they were worth that at least. Even at that price it is hard to break even. Maybe I spoil my ladies with their full feeders but it is easier for me that way. They free range all day too so that helps. I just have more...

Hello everyone! Whoever sent out the memo to my chickens that it was time to go broody can come get them. We were gone overnight and I thought that everyone should be just fine without me gathering eggs for 1 night. Well, they must have all decided to go broody. 7 of my 48 hens went broody on...

Danz I don't think that I could be trusted if I started hatching. Lol. I don't do things on a small scale at all. Lol. When I first got chicks 4 years ago my dear husband agreed and gave his blessing for 5 chicks. So I brought home 8 and added 4 more the next week. It has multiplied from there...

C Welcome! I live between Ionia and Glen Elder so I am fairly close to you. I have Marans hens and a rooster. I love the dark eggs. Mine all run together in a mixed flock so I could not guarantee full blood. I do not hatch chicks normally but do let a broody have a few eggs once in a great...

I am watching the news and they are talking about all of the fires. I hope that all of my chicken friends are safe and smoke free. That wind is so fierce I can't imagine trying to fight a fire. All of the chick talk makes me anxious to get some fuzzies for myself. I Have two broodies in the...

Trish I am glad that your surgery is behind you and you are doing well. Take is easy and take those pain pills if you need them. We got about 6 inches of snow last night and it is still lightly snowing. My silly chickens hate going outside when the ground is white. I scooped them an area so...

I am so sorry for your loss. It is always tough to lose our pets but then it is double hard to watch our kids hurt as well. I think that with Danz's help I have finally got the upper hand on the deadly respiratory virus that was taking its toll on my flock. I did lose my favorite hen and will...

Wow! Thanks for all of the help with my chickens. Danz has been my fountain of knowledge along with reading lots of posts on here. I started several of my sick chickens on Tylan 50 on Sunday night and I can't believe how much better they are doing. My daughter ordered me some Tylan soluble that...
