Jerky was purchased with many turkeys that did not make it today (they were all bought for thanksgiving dinner). Jerky is the happiest 🦃 today. I know many of you know I’m 🌱 based, but we raise meat and laying birds. We were going to use Jerky for today’s dinner, but I can’t butcher a turkey...

What are the chances this chick will thrive? I didn’t notice this when it was a day old, but it is clear now as it grows. It’s eating, drinking, and 💩ing

This is my 2nd order from Ideal Poultry. Let’s just say the first time around, we lost 10 😭 but they replaced them! They came a day early so I was at the post office at 5 am because I called them to get them home ASAP! I am glad I did because one chick was being trampled to death 😭 I think I...

One of my favorite homesteaders in Alaska feeds their chickens from their compost plus free ranging. My chickens have lost interest in chicken feed the past month. I’ve noticed it’s become quite dusty compared to last year. I decided I’m going to grow fodder, a pasture of cloves, and make...

I have been breeding Dubia Roaches for almost a year so I figured I’d share my very successful roach breeding I use for protein tr for my birds and as live feeders for my lizards. I started out in a fish tank and built a huge colony. Now I’m to the point where I’m separating by size. The large...

Can someone point me to a YouTube channel or maybe a book where I can learn to knit... I have several yarns I can use, but I just can’t figure out how to do it! I’d like to learn to do mittens too for my nieces and nephews. Someone please help 😂 I have only a few months before 🎄 Also any...

I jumped onto BYC today and the lovely Kdogg (Kelsey) decided she would share a video with me about a broody chicken hatching quail chicks and raising them so that they could free range with the rest of the chickens. Mrs. Tweedy one of my favorite broodies has gone broody AGAIN for the 2nd...

TSC offered us 6 turkeys at a discount 4 weeks ago. They are BBW and I honestly will never get a BBW again! This is why... We sold 2 and we had 4 left that we were going to use for meat. Ya okay... that was a great plan and all until these things melted our hearts. We kept talking about putting...

So we got chicks a few weeks ago that weren’t what TSC ordered and they’d only sell them to a customer they know in case they’re all males (I rehome or butcher) This is where I shine 😁 So they ask if I want them for $0.50 a piece. They said they were leghorns or Cornish rocks... 😂 I know it’s...

This chick has quite a story. It has now come back into my possession and has a bent out leg. This just happened when it was traveling to its new home. I assume it slid or got stepped on by the other chicks it was with. I already splinted it, but just wanted to see what people thought was...

Has anyone ever free ranged ducks before? I'm asking because mine seem to want to free range and sneak out 🙄 they are Pekin and white layers. I have a muscovy too that free ranges but she can fly which I don't mind. I was thinking about letting them free range during the day and at night...
