the rooster is a year old. Thanks for the advice I will follow be giving him a bath today I guess

they are free ranging over many acres for 14 hours a day. So I don't think it is a space issue. He is the only roo for 15 other hens/pullets. of the 16 chickens he is the only one with any skin issues. I put Nu-stock on him yesterday and when I check him this weekend I may use try some blue kote.

this is my roosters back side. the skin is flaming red from under the tail feathers down over abdomen creeping up onto the breast bone. I see no signs of mites of fleas on him. I have checked several of the hens and they all have nice healthy white skin with no signs of insects. I covered the...

I used cattle panels for a solarium of sorts on my coop. I screwed eye hooks into the wall of my existing coop, slipped the cattle panel into the hooks. stuck the other end of the panels into the ground about 2 feet. making sure the panel had a nice arch to it. It was a bit of a struggle to...

Hey everyone, It's been a long time since I've been on this sight. I just love the Mhp concept and I used it last spring. I brooded my day old chicks in my spare coop OUTSIDE under MPH with wonderful results. pix of outside coop. nothing special here. close up of the chicks cuddled up under...

The MHP set up is AWESOME. Two years ago I brooded my chickens in the house/basement for months, under a red brooding heat lamp thing. The electric bill was through the roof not to mention the dust and chicken doo do and constant fear of fire from hot bulb shining on wood chips 24/7. This...

She is beautiful Deb. @Blooie I'm so sorry to hear about Diane and Dustin. I hope the recover quickly and justice is served.

Wow.. that's all ~ just wow.

also has any one heard from oldmomma recently I've been thinking about her too. My husband installed our new ador automatic chicken door yesterday. I feel guilty about the expense, to me this is as frivolous as a diamond incrusted broom. But, I totally love it.

Have been and will continue to pray for you and your family. I like the idea of celebrating your husbands life.

rrrmamma, I am so very sorry, I wish I had words to make you feel better, or help you understand why it happened. I pray for your family and your husband. Jen

thanks for starting my day off with a laugh.

I have been trying to think of some sort of "porch" or wind break of sorts also to protect it from ice, and snow. The chicken door is the small white rectangle under the center window. I guess I should have done better at planning ahead. I'm thinking a porch will cover the window to much. I...

Does anyone use an automatic chicken door?? This would be an extravagance for me way above my usual comfort zone so I'm very nervous about spending the money, but my kids all want to go in and get this for me. . We will be going on vacation and even though my neighbor is wonderful about...

I would like to buy an automatic chicken door. My concern is winter, here in Wi it seems to last about 9 months. So I don't want to buy a product I will be hassling with most of the year. I'm most concerned about ice and snow. I'm thinking about the Ador, but worried if ice will build up on...

Like Fond du lac Wi?? Do I remember right that you are from wi?

Oh Man! I would LOVE to see Travis Tritt. It has been years since I've seen him in concert. He was one of my favorite concerts, but he hasn't been around in a long time. Why was the concert cancelled? Good luck with the chicks. That is exciting.

I have your standard food saver vac sealer. It works well for regular size packages. I don't know about real large items. I love the attachment to vacuum seal canning jars. I can ( vacuum seal) lettuce salads all the time and they last for ever. The kids love it.

Sure. I love history. Do you mean Green Bay Wisconsin or Green Bay Michigan?
