Chickens will destroy a garden. Worry about keeping them out of the food you grow for the family. Chickens get to free range garden area at the end of season.

Add couple bantem size pullets to the silkie hens coop with its cock. Once the pecking order is set (couple weeks) try adding all the hens back to main coop. Remove silkie cock at this time.

Boiled egg yolks.. Never had any turn a beak to them

10 days old flapping the new feathers. Isabel Ameraucanas, Olive Eggers, Black and blue Copper Marans.

I've only used pine pellets in my brooder boxes and nest boxes and they work great for that. If they get wet with as little as a cup of water they swell up and turn to mush so wouldn't recommend those if any water could get on them. Pine shavings or wood chips could work if its deep like you...

I’m in Ca and we’ve had ton of rain. I have a coop that’s in a low area. First year it was so muddy I had to move the chickens out. 10 yrs ago we filled it with 6+ inches of sand, then I lay flakes of straw. I don’t fluff the straw I lay the flakes like tile. Coop and run are also covered...

Maybe in the future we could swap pullets and try it. I don't have any pullets right now that I can give up, but should later in the year.

I would think the chest lacing might be improved, but they would be med sized. Then could take the medium sized ones back with the large and eventually improve the chest lacing that way. Am I crazy to think that it could be a way to improve the LF color over a few generations? If I can get my...

The more I see the LF the more I want to get some. Makes me wonder what the outcome would be crossing the LF with a bantam lemon blue or brown red...

Rite Aid was amazing couple years ago before they put limits on how many you can buy. I would get ad scans from iheartriteaid.com that shows the weekly ad up to 3 weeks in advance. Find what I wanted to get and went to ebay to buy 20 coupons for whatever. It cost me maybe $2 -$5 for the...
