Like I said, I don't feed them this time of year, they stay in good condition. Maybe that's why I don't find eggs except the early spring.

So it's day 21 on my first hatch of chicken eggs, looking pretty successful so far. Thought I would try to find some duck eggs from my slowly dwindling duck flock. Looked around the ponds with no luck and in all the little outbuildings close to the ponds... nothing. I should have 7 ducks, 1 is...

I just finished mine Monday so I don't know about long term effects. They haven't tried to peck the paint off. I used Valspar Latex Enamel, Interior/Exterior in Almond. I should have used a layer of Kilz because it looks bad. But looking back, everything I've ever painted looks bad, I don't have...

If she was talking about buying pneumatic shears or nibblers or something specialized I might try to talk her out of it. But an angle grinder is pretty handy for a lot of things. I made 3 brooder boxes over the last weekend, took 2 full rolls of of 1/2 inch 48x10ft hardware cloth cut into 12...

I would say the outside diameter doesn't matter if it fits the hub properly. Sounds like you've already payed for them, can't hurt to see if they fit. If I think of it after work tomorrow, I'll check mine. I just used it to cut a bunch of hardware cloth myself.

Basically it was a starting point. If they huddled under the stoves, they were cold and would suffocate, so you needed to turn the stoves up. if there were large bare spots under the stoves and they were crowding the walls, turn the heat down. The birds will tell you what to do. On heat lamps...

We raised for George's Processing, that's the way it was structured, maybe not those exact temps, but pretty close. We closed the doors when I was 15-16 so I don't remember every detail... I also see people ask on here why put honey in the water. I'm sure that came from large scale broilers...

Found out today, Local feed store is having a chick day Saturday and Royal Palm Turkey poults. They look about the same size, probably going to give them a try, even if they don't have the temperament and meat the midget white does.

Southwest Missouri, I still have 1 feed store to check on the way to work in Arkansas. I think all the feed stores here get chicks from Cackle... who don't carry the Midget White. I try to update my profile for location if that's an option.

I've been looking for some midget white turkeys for a little while. Haven't found any local flocks. I did find them listed at 2 hatcheries for 12.00 with a minimum order of 20. I've never raised turkeys and don't feel the urge to throw 240.00 at chicks or poults hoping to keep them alive. Anyone...
