Sounds like a Red or Grey Fox. They leave a distinct musk sent. I have Trapped and caught many in the act of killing chickens. Like the old saying "Like a Fox in a hen house". They will kill everything moving or running and then just grab one or two and take them away to eat. At this time of the...

I made a whizbang plucker last year, processed 50 birds so far and rented it to about 10 people. Everyone that has used it has stated they would never go back to plucking by hand again. I did 50 birds with 1 helper in 2 1/2- 3 hrs. Even I was surprised at how clean the birds were. The scald is...

Hello, I rent a whizbang plucker I made. It works great 15-20 seconds for 3 meat birds. I am in Noblesville, In. I usually charge $40.00 per weekend for the gas water heater and plucker. Not bad if you are cleaning alot of them.

I have 90 that have hatched so far. I have 30 no pips at all. They are all so big it has to be too high humidity for the first 18 days, The rest just cant move inside the shell. I cracked one open and it had piped into the air sack but was solid from top to bottom, and soft and mushy. All the...

Use a good grade linoleum not paper backed. Try to tear it at the store and pick one that is vinyl all the way thru. My standard paper backed style tore up the second year after getting wet. Good luck
