    I’m vicious, I’m mean. I’m a mouse hunter. Can’t you see? But on Saturday night, I’m a pole dancer too!

    I should have put a chicken on the Christmas cake we had. It was snowy white with lots of powdery sugar. Limoncello tiramisu without lemon topping. :p. No entry.

    This is much like the Sinterklaas tradition many have in the Netherlands with older / adult children.

    Shadrach's Ex Battery and Rescued chickens thread.

    Aaa a I love doing Christmas gatherings this way. We had such an agreement when MDH’s mother was still around. Christmas presents or homemade specials like Christmas puddings are not a Dutch tradition as in other countries anyway. Now we decide about a month in advance what we want to do. No...

    How did your flock annoy you today?

    Are you sure the fighting is going way beyond establishing the pecking order? Maybe try to open everything up and only interfere if blood is drawn? Let the chickens decide for themselves where they want to sleep. If it doesn’t work, can you make a video and post it on YouTube or Vimeo. ?

    Shadrach's Ex Battery and Rescued chickens thread.

    We didn’t do presents this year. Bot me and my husband got a few for hosting a Christmas dinner anyway. A bottle Chardonnay. Candles. And more chickens to help with the dishes. 😍 😸 I was very pleased bc I don’t like receiving useless expensive presents too. These towel are a perfect match...

    MJ's little flock

    I believe blood spots are nothing to worry about if it’s only temporary. One reason is possibly large eggs in young laying hens why a blood vessel is torn. Maybe someone else can tell you more. :idunno

    Fall/winter feed

    The supplier where I buy chicken feed gives a discount with larger numbers too. Not a good idea though with just a few chickens. Its not fresh after a few months. Most vitamins deteriorate fast.

    Two properties - would it be too stressful to move chickens back and forth?

    I have been thinking about what might work*. If you have something like a chicken tractor or other small transportable chicken coop (with small run) where they sleep in at home and take it to field, it might work. Let them free range when you are around or build a larger (not transportable)...

    Fall/winter feed

    The cheapest option for good organic layer in my country is not extremely expensive and about ⅓ more expensive than their normal layer (with poison residues). : BLG laying pellets AR 20 kg Organic, contains soy from Europe. € 17,64 Crumble has the same price. Normal laying pellets AR 20 kg...

    What made you happy today?

    Hosted a little Christmas dinner yesterday and my guest brought me an amazing flabbergasting little present, individually. My son gave me a tea towel with chickens, and my sister-in-law gave me a kitchen towel with chickens. Different, but with the same chickens. They go perfectly together.

    What are your frugal and sustainable tips and tricks?

    When I bought my prefab chicken coop, it was used as a cage to house a couple of old rabbits I bought for my children. I intended to keep bantam chickens in it after they died. The prefab was so small, I only could keep the smallest bantams in it. Max 4. So i needed to build a new coop or an...
