    Thank you for posting this video. I’ve watched a few, this seems easier on the chicken as well as me.

    I have a bone to pick with all you incubating ppl...

    We just hatched our first chick yesterday. I’m so with you on this. I call my husband who is a home this weekend because of hatching day, 5 times so far today. I’m at camp 100miles away. It’s driving me bonkers! I work here so I can’t run home to “nothing happening”.

    How do you get rid of unwanted male chicks

    I feel very fortunate, (we can’t have them in our neighborhood), I have a friend who has a farm himself and works at a auction house. So he takes them, he either keeps them or takes them to auction. I’m just relieved to not have to cull them myself.

    Unacceptable Guest Dog

    I have 7 small dogs, they love going out with the chickens, but they are supervised visits. The chickens aren’t afraid of them because they will walk right into house if back door is open and eat out of dog food bowls at same time as dogs. But the dogs are animals and I will not take a chance...

    What's out there?! Scary noises curious & nervous

    When I was young (more than 50yrs ago) I heard a terrible sound, thought it was a child screaming, we lived on a lake with lots of young families. I went running out looking for it 5:00am. It’s was cats, fighting or in heat. I was not happy to be woke up!
