    I'm behind on the coop, but I can push the chick's off a while

    I'm running behind because of the weather, but I can push my chicken order can also be pushed back. First order is going out the 30th of this month. The second is the 17th of April. I need as much time as I can get! But I'm worried because of the weather change. It was 0°f Friday and 50...

    What did you build or make today?

    Thought this might be a fun thread, to see what people are building or making day to day. Obviously we have a section for chicken related items, but how about other things? I'm in, I build things everyday (and honestly get bored sometimes) here's what I've done recently. cut pistol...

    Not new to chickens, but it's been a while

    I grew up with lots of poultry. My father was a purist and we had chickens, turkeys, and guinea hens. Also water fowl, ducks and geese. But honestly. That was 20yrs ago. I left home at 17. And I've never really left the life style, but have definitely been outta the game for a while. And I'm...
