    Police Seize Chicks Without A Warrant! ****PHOTOS ADDED****

    Quote: I have mixed feelings on this one; I do believe they need somerepercussions. In criminal cases where the police have overstepped their bounds, there have usually only been indirect consequences from the judicial system--cases tossed, evidence disallowed, even previously adjudicated...

    Police Seize Chicks Without A Warrant! ****PHOTOS ADDED****

    Not always... The Constitution is a restriction placed upon the Federal Government as to what it can and cannot do. Not on the states (for the most part) It may or may not be that entirely all of it, verbatim, is applicable to the states. States have their own constitutions as well. And not...

    Post PICS of your GLORIOUS ROOSTERS here!!! All breeds welcome!

    This is the RIR rooster. He doesn't have a name. I am still waiting on his personality to dictate one. He is likely about 7 months old. All of them are. Some of the Hens just started laying in the last few weeks and continue to pick up in both numbers and size. They all were hatched about the...

    Someone keeps making complaints about my chickens! (Update post #222!)

    Quote: I don't go for that philosophy of not confronting on the slim chance they may be nuts. If they are nuts, I tell them "Oh, YOU are gonna do crazy? Wanna have a crazy-off? I can out crazy your sorry self any day of the week. Bring it on." No one has ever brought it on. Yup. Nobody ever...

    Someone keeps making complaints about my chickens! (Update post #222!)

    I wouldn't antagonize her. She may be a couple eggs shy of a dozen. Maybe if you ignore her for some time she will fixate on someone or something else. Like they say on the internet.... "Don't feed the Troll".

    accidently killed my rir roo

    His only chance to survive now might very well lay in you being very tough and dominant with him. If he doesn't submit your going to be having Chicken and Dumplings. I wouldn't lose any sleep over it. Your likely to have to really scare and, to some extent, hurt him to accomplish this now. Its...

Low and behold there was one bag sitting all by it's lonesome on the end of a shelf with a yellow tag marked down from $9.99 to $5.00. I...

    Oyster shell for calcium and mercury

    Ok... I am finding some references on Copper "Copper at a level of 800 ppm in a practical turkey diet is toxic but 50 ppm of copper in a purified diet reduces growth. The toxicity of copper is modified by the sulfur acid content of the diet." Keep in mind we feed Practical Diets not Purified...

    Oyster shell for calcium and mercury

    This is a great question. I will only take on part of it. The implied concern about oyster shell that sort of is brought up. I don't think we have anything to be concerned with there. Now mind you, this is only one study but I have seen a few others that also conclude this...
