    Lock suggestions?

    This lock is rust-proof and holds up well. A little WD-40 keeps even regular locks working for a few years here in damp, humid Florida.

    Show off your Delawares! *PIC HEAVY*

    Hey Delaware people! Wanted to share my first hatch with you. Della Reese is a good mom. She had been dying to sit on a clutch for months and I couldn't take it anymore. They're even cuter when they're homegrown!

    Is it too young to determine if pullet or cockerel?

    *throws two cents in* At six weeks I'd think the first one would have more redness and wattle development if it were a cockerel. Delawares grow fast and some pullets look very boy-ish when growing. I had one with a big comb, barred tail, thick legs, all of it. Lays some very big eggs for a...

    Sugar Ants In brooder

    Slather some dish soap on whatever parts of the tank thing are touching the floor. I had to do this when I had a snake and didn't want to use bug spray or bait. Make it thick so it gets sticky when it dries. If you want a dry solution, borax around the perimeter will deter most bugs and not...

    Does Cloth Fencing Exist?

    That's the stuff I use. Definitely plastic. You don't even have to use the whole 7 feet of height, my chickens won't touch it at about 3.5 feet tall (it's folded over). Word of warning: EVERYTHING gets stuck in it, and the individual mesh fibers are weak. But it's lightweight, the wind won't...

    What kind of poultry bird can I keep in my bedroom?

    x2 . I know someone who kept a trio of buttons in a large rabbit cage. Didn't even know they were there until he showed me.

    Does Cloth Fencing Exist?

    The deer netting is for the chicken yard. The entire yard is fenced with welded wire and field fencing.

    Does Cloth Fencing Exist?

    I use deer netting to keep my chickens out of parts of the yard. It's 7 feet by 100 feet; 15 or 20 dollars at the orange home improvement place. It's too flimsy for them to attempt to perch and fly over, so they don't get out. Landscape or construction "cloth" netting I've seen smaller chickens...
