    Unknown reason for death

    Yup, they get changed every other day. Plus they’re inside-no sunshine (too cold to be outside) And no bloody diarrhea. If that were the case, everyone would be sick, not just one hen :-(

    Unknown reason for death

    I checked my chickens last night... all was fine. This a.m. one of my girls had passed, obviously several hours ago. Her anus and tail feathers were all bloody.

    Dogs & chickens

    does anyone have suggestions on how to keep your dog from eating chicken poop?? It doesn’t agree w/her digestion and besides it’s gross. I yell at her, but then she goes right back to it.

    Feed sack recycling ideas??

    Thanks everyone! Some great ideas here! I like the idea of covering boards w/the bags; we’ll be insulating our chicken shed w/styrofoam (because we already have it) & it does have to be covered. Didn’t think to use the feedbags! I also like the idea of making bags; people can always use...

    Feed sack recycling ideas??

    does anyone have any ideas on what to do w/all the feed sacks one collects? I use a couple for recycling (cardboard, cans, #1 plastic), and I wipe off my dog food bags & use them for wrapping packages (inside out so I can use the blank side for addressing). Oh, and I use them as trash bags too.
