    Just processed a meat bird, it had no gallbladder!

    Hi everyone! I move very slowly, and I'm by myself, so I can only process 1-2 birds a day. Yesterday I did my first 2 birds, (Cornish crosses) they both had nice little gallbladders, which I successfully cut away. Today I did one bird, and I couldn't find her gallbladder anywhere! It's been...

    Barn Owls and chickens? Problem?

    When I noticed a barn owl in my tree, I came right here too see of it was going to be a problem, especially since my girls choose to sleep in odd places. This answer reassured me. But at 1:55am (just 15 minutes ago) my full size adult girls started to put up a huge fuss, waking me from a sound...

    Cayenne Pepper It Really Gets Those Hens Laying

    I came to this thread because I recalled Laura Ingalls Wilder writing about using a "well peppered mash" to keep hens laying through the winter.

    Thank you, I'll check it out. I live in a rather infamous small town, and they don't allow roosters, yet you can hear them crowing all day from all around. I think it's kind of a, "Don't ask, don't tell" and if the neighbors don't complain, and neither do the tourists, you're ok.

    Hi all! This is my first post, and I was wondering if I could get some help determining the sex of two of my chickens. Out of 6 straight run, I had 2 definite girls, and one definite rooster. He did the adolescent chest bumping, then he started to crow. I was able to find a home for him and...
