    Your 2026 Garden

    I have another question. Quality and price wise, where is the best place to get Brassica netting? Many gardeners have told me that they don't need the netting if they plant their Brassicas far away from each other, and with other tall plants seperating them (like in a food forest), but I want to...

    Weak Pullet Unable to Stand Up. Previously Bleeding.

    Hello everyone. I just found my young bearded silkie x polish bantam pullet lying sideways on the coop floor. She was so stiff when I picked her up, but was still alive. She has control of her body, but she just seems so weak that she can't hold herself up. She was bleeding from the nose and...

    What are your opinions on grains/seeds as layer feed instead of processed feed?

    According to scientific studies, ultra-proccessed-foods (UPFs) are unhealthful for everyone, including chickens.

    Good quality, recent, independent information on nutrition

    Since the first director of the USDA (Max Rubner) was a pupil of the man who discovered protein (Carl Voit) there has always been a cultural bias on how much protein we, and our feathered children, should consume. Carl Voit knew that humans only needed 48.5 g/day, but he recommended 118 g/day...

    Comment by 'Sequoia Raven Bird Farms' in article 'The Anatomy and Physiology of the Chicken'

    It's really great to see the anatomy of my feathered friends. I'd love to see a diagram of the internal workings of the chicken too to deepen my understanding (obviously not one made of real chicken). Thanks!

    Official BYC Poll: Do you change your chicken feed in the fall to prepare for winter?

    Silkie Cemani cross

    My black Bearded Silkie rooster bred my Ayam Cemani hen and now I have a very handsome cockerel with black skin, a black comb and slate legs. He doesn't have feathered legs but he has his father's really cute slicked back crest. He's really friendly and is so adorable and soft. His body is also...
