    What Animals can Emus Live With?

    My next question would be how many eggs should we buy? I have read that they do not do well by themselves, and that they need to have friends. I would like to have between 2 and 3.

    What Animals can Emus Live With?

    About a year ago, my family ¨accidentally¨ bought a 25 acre farm in south Ohio that we have had for about a year now. We have two llamas (a intact female and gelded male), two alpacas (intact female, gelded male), two mini donkeys (intact female, gelded male), and two whether goats that we all...

    Duck Brooder Questions

    The chicks will be out in the coop by the time the ducklings get here. They will have it all to themselves.

    Duck Brooder Questions

    I am receiving four ducklings late April this year, and I need to get some kind of brooder set up. I am thinking about getting the smallest size hardware cloth I can find and stretching it across the bottom of some kind of box, leaving a space underneath for all the water they splash around to...

    Moving chicks out

    Thats good news! means you are feeding them and taking care of them well! As I said, 56 is definitely too cold for chicks that young, so you may have to use the ten foot brooder.

    Moving chicks out

    Im nowhere close as experienced as some of the folks on here, so you should probably look it up for yourself or wait for someone more knowledgeable than be to answer, but from what I have read, two and a half weeks is too young for them to be outside in 56. from what ive seen, they need to be...

    So I went into Tractor Supply today...

    Im not a chicken expert(this is my first year), but those ¨chipmunks look exactly like my Americana chicks. Maybe they got put in the wrong bin or labeled incorrectly? There are a few Plymouth Rocks mixed in there so ignore them.

    Chicks pecking at bottom of brooder

    I got 8 chicks yesterday(4 Americana, 4 Plymouth rocks), and everything is seeming fine except they are all trying to peck at a specific spot on the bottom of their plastic brooder. The only reason I can imagine them doing this is to get some sort of grit for the little bit of scrambled eggs I...

    Making a Coop in a Barn Stall?

    My family just bought a 25 acre farm in southern Ohio, and it has a large barn supposedly built in the 1800s. It has one stall that looks as if it is just for storage, so I was curious as to weather or not it is a viable idea to build a wall on the open side for a chicken coop. The dimensions of...

    Excessive Amounts of Poop in Barn

    From the section i removed, there was straw all in it, but i dont know if it is like that all through the barn, because where i dug was right next to the feeder.

    Excessive Amounts of Poop in Barn

    I dont mind getting my hands dirty, but i dont think you understand the sheer amount of poop Lol. Im planning on using it for my garden, and ive seen where you can somehow make a big pile of it and chickens can get nutrients from it. Even after that, there will still probably be too much, so ill...
