    Wood burning stove ashes.... good for dusting in?

    I have a wood burning stove in my basement and typically just dump the ashes out in our outdoor burn pit when we clean it out. Would it be okay to give them to my chickens instead so they can dust in it? Just wondering if anyone has done this or heard of it being done? Thanks! :)

    Please help me decide which BLRW Roo to keep!

I'm new to chickens so I'm still learning on what to look for and what to avoid when it comes to breed standard. Do I need to wait a couple more weeks for more...

    Is this an albino wild turkey?

    Looks like what hunters (like me! ) refer to as a rarely colored "smoke phase" hen turkey.
