    CDC warning

    I was watching Ice Age Farmer on You Tube the other night when he went off on the CDC making it illegal to have backyard poultry. It was late and I didn't check his source. I just did reread the article he was using and didn't see anything about making having backyard chickens illegal. My...

    CDC warning

    Exactly. But if the CDC makes it illegal to have chickens in our backyard, that won't matter.

    CDC warning

    Has anyone seen information about CDC removing our ability to have backyard chickens? They claim that it’s too dangerous because one person has died from salmonella. There are some 252 cases too. They want to stop us from getting around getting our food from the cabal.

    Opossum in my chicken house

    Ok, this is bad. I extended my chicken run in June and thought it was secure. There are four hens in a very secure coop inside my run. I added four chicks into the run who were 10 weeks old. They have their own smaller coop. That is to keep the old and new separate until they are older...

    Howdy, we're soon to be new chicken owners

    Yep, thanks for the guidance. Too late for the first one, but, afterwards while I was down and out, I researched the web for ways to avoid this happening again. Wow, for sixty years, I never had a problem with store bought eggs. Then, boom, salmonellae from eggs bought from a friend of my...

    Howdy, we're soon to be new chicken owners

    Understand first time jiggers. Just finished my coup made of Pallet boards. Then making a run that is 8 by 10. My niece told me last weekend that she had my chickens ready for me. She tried to introduce some new chicks into the main flock and were picked on pretty badly. So, she just said...

    Chickens and the eclipse

    I don't have my chickens yet. But, this is a great idea. I can leave work without problem, run home and video the event. Wow! That would be neat to see their reactions.

    LOVE MY COOP AND RUN! OH, AND HUSBAND!!!!

    What kind of netting is that and where did you get it. Someone recommended a netting, I think like you have, to use on the top of my run. He claimed it would stop raccoons and opossums from getting in. Really want to make sure of it before bringing chickens into the run. Thanks.

    Another newbie!

    Thank you. That looks very interesting. I have built seven 4 x 8 raised beds last year and have a 13 x 20 BTE garden in the yard. Just like in Florida, I am having to build up my soil with compost. Hoping the chickens can help with the composting too. We just bought the 1/4 acre lot next...

    Thank you KikisGirls. I watched that film last year and it got my blood flowing again! I love Paul's ideas and since he has been doing it for many years, he has proven it works. I have viewed everyone of L2Survive's video's on Paul's garden. Wow! That is exciting. I also view multiple...

    Another newbie!

    Hi, everyone. I have been watching back yard chickens for some time now. Mainly, looking at all the great coop ideas. For you see, I decided last year to get back into gardening again after leaving my beautiful two and half acre home-site and garden in Florida twenty seven years ago. I...
