    how to raise the baby chicks from a broody hen with other chickens????

    I will be shunned by the majority, But I left my broody cochin and her two eggs (and then babies) with the flock the entire time. No one bothered her, and even when the others went to lay in her nest box, no one ever broke an egg. I did have to mark with a sharpie which eggs she was actually...

    Making a Slow Feeder - Need Help

    With the netting this small, unless the horse had a shoe that could get caught in it, I dont think they could get a foot through the holes. We barefoot trim, so I dont have that to worry about. I tried Bass Pro Shop, Sportsman Outfitter... Got Nothing...

    Anyone have Metro PCS cell service? How is it?

    I had Metro "POS" when I lived in Largo. Back then it was brand new and was all that the teens could afford while in high school... I think they have improved their roaming, but back in the day the moment you left FL you had ZERO service. Dont expect to EVER talk to a customer service...

    Does anyone know how to get blu-kote off skin?

    I know this sounds weird but it must have something to do with the alcohol in it, but hand sanitizer... COVER your hand in hand sanitizer (without letting dry) and then rinse off. Might take more than one application, but I have good luck with it!
