  1. Raised grass beds for chicken runs.

    Ariannas Chicken Coop | Raised grass beds for chicken runs.

    The Grass Boxes The idea is pretty simple. 1) Make a wood frame ( like you would do for a raised garden bed) 2) Built a door. Staple the rubber net ( there are some very thick and heavy duty nets available), then screw another piece of wood to pin the net like a sandwich ( I used a 1x2 on the...

    For those of you who asked me questions about the grass boxes, I apologise for not replying. I'm afraid I have not been online or on any social media for some years now (for personal reasons). When I first posted this photos I did not expected to be that much of a novelty ( I got the idea...

    Carolina Chickenstock Spring 2013

    I agree about those polish chicks . Very pretty and very healthy looking. I have never had a polish hen but I was tempted to get at least one or two of those beauties. Wish they were just a little bit older. I have seen some pretty chickens today, some with very pretty colors on bantams, but I...

    I'm interested in the Mille Fleur d'uccle pair, and the white d'uccle trio. I have a question about the white trio, if I pay the $20 for the trio can I just have the hens? Thank you, Arianna.

    So I quit smoking today......(HELP!!!!)

    Chew sunflower seeds. They will help with the habit. For cravings I suggest nicotine patches (not the gum, that's just as addictive as the cigarettes and more expensive ). Ask your wife not to smoke anywhere near you, and have her hide the cigarettes, otherwise it will be an easy...

    Help: Is My Hen Going Broody Or What?

    Quote: You don't have to close the coop at night, only during the day for couple of hours. If she is off the eggs for few hours a day for the next 3-4 days that will be enough to break the broody instinct. As far as nest boxes, chickens like to lay in the same box, often times together in the...

    Help: Is My Hen Going Broody Or What?

    Ohh, and one more thing, Yes, hens do go broody even if they don't have a rooster around. They will behave the same with or without a rooster, the only difference is that the eggs she is sitting on are not fertile. If you don't really want to hatch, then is better not to let her stay on the...

    Help: Is My Hen Going Broody Or What?

    Sounds like she is trying to go broody. It's up to you if you want to have a broody hen in the middle of the winter. I would not recommend it, it makes it harder for a successful hatching rate, plus it will be to cold for the chicks to survive outside. You can brake her habit by taking her...

    need tips on rose bushes

    The rose looks very beautiful and healthy. In the spring you have to prune it to give it a good start for the year. When you cut, always cut in a angle, one inch above the nod. Roses are very beautiful flowers but they do require some maintenance, except Knock-Out roses witch are low...

    Ideal Hatchery Order - Very pleased!!

    I had a batch from Privett (Ideal gets their chicks from Privett), very beautiful, healthy, and had some extra, but unfortunately most of them turned out to be roosters. I had bantams so I didn't had the choice for sexing. When buying from hatchery, if you can have them sexed, it's good to do...

One of the Quail, a Porcelain and the Dun are laying almost every day (keeping up with...
